The Lockport Locks were a minor league baseball team based in Lockport, New York. The team began in 1942 as the Lockport White Sox, and affiliate of the Chicago White Sox in the Pennsylvania–Ontario–New York League, which is today the New York–Penn League. In 1943 the team changed affiliations with the Chicago-based major league clubs and became the Lockport Cubs. After spending 1945 as the Lockport White Socks, they were the Cubs again in 1946, however as an unaffiliated team. The team became affiliated with the Cincinnati Reds in 1947 and were renamed the Lockport Reds. A year later the club won the league title.

Everyone's favorite boomer, Chad.

Merchant’s Gargling Oil was founded in Lockport, New York by Dr. George W. Merchant, a druggist, in 1833. The ointment was intended for surface wounds and skin ailments common to horses, cattle, sheep, and poultry. A version was also made for human skin problems, but not until 1875. It was at this time that the product was marketed as being "Good for Man and Beast.” Neither product was intended for internal use, despite the product name, so you can stop thinking about horses gargling right now, mister. For anyone who might be curious, Merchant’s Gargling Oil was a mixture of petroleum, soap, ammonia water, oil of amber, iodine tincture, benzine, and water. The oil could be found on shelves until 1928 when the factory burned down.
