As near as I recall (I looked this up in Toronto city directories MANY years 
ago, and
exchanged messages with the late Ross Brethour, who had done a LOT of
research thereon...!) Mercury(C) goes back to the Tip Top and Monogram
labels (both Canadian). The first Canadian Mercurys cite a Newmarket
location; later ones Toronto.

I assume I have long since lost all my digital archives which included
messages from Ross...?!
