On the left is a Westinghouse battery jar I've owned for several years. On the right is one I just picked up in an auction. It's the same width but almost twice as deep as the first jar. I've never seen one this big. You'll notice the one on the left says Westinghouse and has the logo of Westinghouse Union Battery Company on it. The one on the right only has the logo. The batteries were made in Swissvale east of Pittsburgh. Not sure if they cast the glass themselves.
