The Warren Electrical & Specialty Company

The Warren Electric and Specialty Co. is a notable figure in early 20th-century industrial history for its defiant stance against the lighting monopoly held by General Electric (GE). Around 1900, the company marketed its light bulbs under the name "Anti-Trust" to appeal to consumers who were wary of the "Electrical Trust" that controlled nearly all lamp production in the United States.
