Hey guys,
Just bought this at the yard sale yesterday. I don't think 5$ was to much laugh

This way Doc doesn't have to click another screen to see this can.

Mike, I think you made out "like a bandit". Nice looking can.

Thanx guys.
Doc mine was empty.
How do you find out the year of the can?
Here is the back side if it will help.

I never see any of this stuff in VT. Must have been picked clean years ago.

Doc;
Remember the question about the dots and the Arrow pointing down on this can?

This can shows how it was used for imprinting the contents.
They got the Detergency (never heard of it being called that before) off center on the stencil.

Invader Motor oil produced by the plowman company in Garden City LI was not allowed to sell outside of NY and I believe NJ as part of the deal they cut when they purchased the brand. Logos, can design's and the such were the same as the one's produced in PA.
