No paper, it's literally all pottery except a thin band of metal (presumably where the top lid adhered) and the bottom rim and cap are also metal.

Found this web site. Seems this guy makes all sorts of oil cans and such out of glazed porcelain. Yours is further down on the site. First cans I’ve ever seen made from porcelain and ceramic. http://blackbookgallery.com/artists/mitchell-spain/

Wow Desertexplorer! I'm disappointed that I didn't find a super rare collectable but, I'm happy that the mystery is solved. You are a top notch detective! I guess I'll throw it on eBay and see what an oil can inspired artist-made tumbler is worth. Thanks for your help.
