Tim if you don't find it here in the book store Google it:

http://www.amazon.com/American-Oil-Cans-Identification-Price/dp/0972860703

I have four or five books, but for ID only. The values they show in todays market are pretty much useless.....

Tom & Susan Allen's American oil can book is the best of them all in my opinion. But it is only Quart oil cans.

Even if the values are outdated on any of the books (signs, pumps, cans), wouldn't they give a general guideline (an yes, I am sure there are excpetions) to what items are more valuable and what items are more common?
