Hi, I have this really rare german VW Volkswagen can from the 1950's, only seen 1 in more than 10 years of collection I wanted to trade it but I was asked the price, so for the value what do you think, according to the condition, rarity and being early volkswagen I thought 800 to 1000 $ would be the value of it

That could very well be the value in Europe but I think if your looking for a value in North America terms your looking more in the 150-200 range.
Wanted early tin litho signage. petro, farm, auto, etc.

Yeah, just one of those cans whose market value doesn’t translate well across the different petroliana markets. I wouldn’t see many people paying over $150 for it 😕
Looking for Michelin items + NJ oil company related items (Mohawk, Guardian, Whiz, etc) + animal-related petroliana + Gargoyle/Shell/Sinclair items
