Sirs,

I recently bought an old basement that was a car garage at one time. I have done pretty well with identifying most items and there values however this one item has me stumped. It is a Standard Oil barrel from 1902 and 1913. It seems to be made of galvanized metal and is very heavy. I think that it is 50 gallon but I am unsure. Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.
