That makes me think of some very sinister and wrong things. After reading some "bios" my thoughts do have some truthes about the abuse that went on in these places back in the day.
It made me think some very wrong things too, but I bet you went a totally different direction than me...

Otis lubricant, for Otis elevators. Excellent.
How old would those cans be? Late '40s, maybe?
Do I have to understand this?^^
Strange that today we have to account for every drop of hazardous chemicals but then they could just throw it out back. Makes you wonder how contaminated the worl really is.
There's always time for lube
The Otis elevator company is still in business. The oil cans fit with the logo they used from about 1950 on. I doubt they would have had much metal oil cans lying around from the early 1940's as much of the material was collected and used for the war effort. It looks like they changed the logo to black cursive on a yellow background with a twist top (these were 1 and 2 gallon size metal jars I found) in the late 60's or early 70's and the cans I found date form like 1972ish. My guess would be the oil in them is junk but they still make this type of oil http://www.qualityelev.../main/liquid/lub.htm along with several others that are comparable.
Awesome!!!
