Bring a conversation-starting piece of New York company history to the course with Paragon Oil-inspired golf balls. Founded in 1925 by the Schwartz brothers, Paragon Oil began with residential heaters and grew into a fuel supplier for city buildings and customers throughout the Northeast. A postwar government contract carried its reach to Europe, and its later work supplying oil to submarines marked another chapter in the company’s changing business. A memorable choice for golfers and collectors interested in regional industry.
Paragon Oil was founded in New York City in 1925 by brothers Henry, Irving, Robert, Benjamin, and Arnold Schwartz. The family first built and sold oil heaters designed for residential buildings, earning several patents for their designs, then shifted toward distributing fuel oil to buildings using the heaters. In the early 1930s, the company won a contract to supply fuel to New York City-run buildings. It remained largely a local New York-area business until after World War II, when its location near the docks and five-gallon packaging helped it secure a U.S. government contract to supply fuel oil to Europe during postwar reconstruction. The business later supplied oil to U.S. submarines during the early Cold War and operated delivery trucks across the Northeast, as well as oil tankers. The Schwartz brothers sold the company to Texaco in the late 1950s; the sale became final in the early 1960s. Most of the brothers later used proceeds to help establish the Brookdale Foundation and support charitable and educational institutions, especially in the New York metropolitan area. The company is unrelated to a present-day Brooklyn business with a similar name.
