Is there much interest in the tall imperial quart oil cans? A friend of mine had a box of 12 different ones in his barn that he just bought to resell. Had a Texaco, White Rose maybe, Tydol Tydex and others. Didnt have my camera with me. I know a lot of people collect quart cans, is there much interest in the imperial qts as they are from Canada? I myself would buy one if it was a Sinclair can as that is the brand I collect but I am wondering if the imperial quarts are very desireable to the average can collector?

I don't know about others, but I would be interested in imperial quarts, but would not have the value to me that american quarts would have.

I love Veedol and Tydol Imperial qt cans. Looked for a certain version of one for a couple of years, before I was lucky enough to acquire it.

No one in their Right mind collects the "Tydol/Tydex" cans! LOL

I set 1 of my re-lid machines just for Imp. Qts, haven't done many since Chris Holt's passing [still miss that guys Humor].

There are lots of Candaian collectors that are on here as well. You may be selling to a smaller audience but if you watch e-bay the nice imperial cans still get very good prices. If selling on e-bay the most important thing is to make sure that you include Canada in the countries you ship to, or you will be answering questions from people wanting to buy.
