check the past episodes of american pickers -they bought 2 off a guy and discussed its age and value but i dont know if it was the exact same can
these are from the 1930's-40's usually sell on eBAY for 100-250 and Indian cans from same era sell for more
I know 37,000 yuppies that would pay $500.00 for it.
Thanks for the information. The can is for sell so that's why I was trying to get an idea of what it may be worth. Not wanting to take advantage of anyone and not wanting to be taken advantage of so the information is appreciated.

I bought 20 or so of these years ago ,...good luck!
