      Does "1956" on bottom indicate that this was made in 1956? Surely not. Or was it? I love this old can. Has fine style, and the Navy label make it even more special.

      hi mikkochristmas11. yes, i think it probably is from 1956, although i probably would have thought older. i'm not really sure though. i have another, really beautiful garbage can from the 1920s or earlier. i'll have to post that one soon.
