I was cleaning out an old shop and found these two cans. One is a one quart Quaker State DeLuxe in a cardboard can. It was manufactured in Oil City, Pennsylvania in 1981.

Cool find, but it always depresses me when I see stuff like this on antiques and collectibles pages because I remember selling them back in the late seventies. Thanks for making me feel like an old geezer.

I can if you post a picture.
The Quaker State can should be pre 1942 since that is when they changed the can design to DeLuxe being diagonal IMHO!
