metal or paper?
Metal....now you got me curious. I may have a paper one as well,
All left over from when my gramps used to buy it for me when he saw it on sale. This was years ago...
I worked at my dad's service station and am well versed. That's back when we still asked regular or unleaded, washed the windows and aired the tires.
Had more than I thought. All metal. From the 70's
Think I have a can or two somewhere. Those were some messy things
I remember the cans that were metal top and bottom but the rest was some kind of paperboard. I was constantly having to wipe the shelves when they leaked at the parts store I worked at as a teen.
I was cleaning out the garage last year and found two. I kept one for remembrance.
The best thing about them is that they stayed in, not dumping oil all over.
Last week I was browsing in a north-Georgia "Antique" store and they wanted $30 for slightly earlier version of this:
Man I burned plenty of those in my child-hood.
