I'm not much of a collector, but being from Wyoming, I'd really like to pick up these two cans. If anyone has one that they would like to part with, please let me know!

Thanks for your time,
Chris

Yeah right, the Sioux shouldn't be a big deal, that Old Faithful can though? You may have better luck finding a Roman or a Duplex, LOL. Pack a lunch pal, good luck.

I'm still looking for the two cans pictured above, and I'd like to add this one to the list as well. If anyone out there has any for sale, please let me know. Thanks!

...that Old Faithful can looks rather strange...note how the sides of the can are flush with the top and bottom rims, and the rims are proportionally thicker than the rims on either of the cans in the other two photos...is that photo of an actual can?


Looking for better Gulf items: signs, globes, cans and paper - especially porcelain Gulf flanges, and Gulf A-38 & A-62 ad glass...

I got that photo out of the quart can image album on this site. I don't know anything about it other than that. I do think if there is one out there, it should come home to Wyoming though!!

Thanks for the heads up on the Old Faithful can!

I'm still looking for the oil cans pictured earlier in this thread. If anybody has one for sale, please let me know.

Thanks!

Forgot to add, it was a paper label on the can.

I'm completely in the dark on that can. I didn't even know that it came from North Dakota.

I'd sure like to find it and one of the white Sioux cans. Thanks!

Chris
