Need a oil can expert on Falcon quart oil cans. I purchased a Falcon quart oil can on ebay. The top lid on the can in the listing was stamped SAE 20. The bottom lid was stamped with a large letter "C" .
The can I recieved was plain on the top lid and had the "C " on the bottom lid.The can looks real to the best of my knowledge.
Were these cans re-popped ? Or is this just a re-lid that I have ? I will take a pic and post it .
Thanks Bob first time I have run into this.

. The bottom lid was stamped with a large letter "C" I believe the C on the bottom is for Canco..

Amer. Can Co. aka; CANCO usually had their logo graphics on side of can, same w/ Continental Can Co.
Back then when there were 100's of Oil Companies, there were also 100's of can companies. Everything was sealed in cans & jars.
