Oil can with Spartan on it? #383030 Thu Jan 03 2013 02:29 PM

OP jwood7 Petro Enthusiast Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 758 Indiana	I spoke to guy last night who said he had a rare oil can for sale with a Spartan on it. I have not gotten the oil can book I bought off Amazon yet and I cannot find any information on this oil can. He also said he could not get a picture of it at that time because it was in storage so the only information I have on it is its a 5 gallon square oil can with a Spartan on it. Could anyone help me out and tell me a little more about this can, the company who made it, and how rare it is. Last edited by jwood7; Thu Jan 03 2013 02:55 PM.

I just looked it up and it had a viking on it, which would make sense seeing as though the name is Norse. That can might be it, I mean it actually says the name spartan right on it.The only other information I have on it is he said the can is listed in a oil can book, I am not sure which book, for 250$.
