==History==
In 1908, Victor S. Johnson, Sr. a soap salesman, in Chicago, IL, became interested in kerosene mantle burners. Dissatisfied with the available kerosene lamps of the time, Johnson began selling US made mantle lamps. He incorporated his lamp sales business and called the company the Mantle Lamp Company of America. In 1912 the company began manufacturing mantle lamps that gave off a steady white light without smoke. They called these lamps Aladdin lamps after the magical lamp and wish-granting genie in the children’s story.
In 1917, Johnson diversified the company’s offerings and began producing insulated cooking dishes, known at the time as Aladdin Thermalware jars. These Thermalware jars were the company’s first venture into heat and cold retaining dishes and are early cousins of the products in use today. In 1919, Johnson moved these jars into a new subsidiary he called Aladdin Industries. This subsidiary offered thermalware jars and vacuum ware and successfully sold and manufactured these products from 1919-1943.
In 1943, Victor S. Johnson, Sr. died and his son Victor S. Johnson, Jr. took over as president of Aladdin Industries, Inc. In 1949, in an effort to centralize operations, Johnson Jr. moved Aladdin’s offices and manufacturing facilities to Nashville, TN.
