    Anybody know how old the Tip-Top can is? The 5 gal US can was in such good shape I had to grab it for $5, tip-top can and oil bottle $4 !!!
    The oil bottle came with a free dead mouse! YUCK!

      Wow, 1920's hard to believe this can is that old, just might have to buy that crate. Thanks a lot stonesfan1, ever see the stones? I did in the early 80's
