Here's my only "L" in my small can collection. I looked on this can to see who made it and there was no name anywhere. It's sorta mysterious, very little info on it at all. I can only guess that this was a generic low cost brand in it's day???
If anyone can shed some light on this I'd be interested to know more.



Take care guys!!

Scott,

I believe this group of 13 Lubrite cans represents all that were made after Lubrite became part of Socony-Vacuum, although there may be a few newer cans that didn't include the Pegasus logo.
