Can flattened cans be worth good money if they are super rare? Got TP aero with wings, Thurmar with TP design, Hiofilm,Pennant,Penn-champ. I never seen any of these cans before. They have wear probably from being in back of a wall or roof. The TP aero is especially attractive with large wings coming from the Indian TP. Is the TP AERO before the Thurmar TP? I am guessing it is as not as graphic.Wanted to somehow put them together as a can but some ends it may not work

On the cut off flats I take a cheap metal havoline can or such and wrap the flat around the can and solder the flat to the can underneath. if they are cut off much at all and you re-roll and re-lid them they will always be shorter and that bugs me. this way it keeps the cans the same height.

Here are the Quart can sides. Some look pretty rare (?).

I guess the bigger question has anyone seen these cans before especially the TP with the wings? It has a 1,803,000 patent putting the patent date at 1931.
