Looks like a new paper label on an old GI oil can to me. I have seen others made up like this before. One little can even said 1 quart on the label

IF ebay did not require PayPal I'd list my DATED Fantasy/Copy cans again!

I agree, it's a POS.

His Champion display is also fantasy but he freely admitted it and said it's dated, just not in the description, probably an oversight on his part

I sent him an email and here was his response!

Fraud is a pretty harsh word, especially when you are not trying to deceive anyone. I honestly was not aware of the age or origin of this can. I have stopped the auction and I do appreciate your knowledge over mine on this item. Just for the records, I do have a return policy on the few items I sell on eBay, and I do honor it.

Thanks again for the information.

Once again the real problem with unmarked reproductions has surfaced. What happens when the item has been sold 2 or 3 times? SOMEONE will believe it is real! SAD!

At least, he listens when told it is a reproduction.
