    This has got to be the strangest oil can ever, says Shell-Mex on the side, BP in the middle of shell insignia, And says Esso on the top of cap. Stamped London on the top as well. Has to be rare.

      It may not be as old or rare as you are thinking. Google it and you will find the history of the companies and their merger in the UK in 1932.
