I bought this can this past weekend at the Turlock swap meet. It has its issues, but overall I think that it looks cool for how old it is.

I believe that it's from the teens or early 20s. Am I correct?? What would be the value of the can in this condition? Just want to make sure that I didn't overpay.

Thanks.

Not trying to be smart, but it is a little too late to make sure you didn't over pay.

I wouldn't worry about how much you paid, if you like it, that's all that counts.

You're right! It is too late. I just wanted to reassure myself.

I like the can.
