Looking for any info, age, value, etc. Picked this up the other day to give as a gift to a skelly collector. Trying to decide if I should restore or not but not even sure what it looked like when new. Thanks for any help fellas.

If the Skelly is embossed on a visible part of the can a collector would probably pick it up for 20-25 in above condition, otherwise 10-15 as is.

The style of the can looks 48-mid 60's to me.

I've seen several restored branded cans sell for $40-90 depending on originality and whether embossed, sticker, painted branding.
