I have tried and tried to resize my pictures of a Penncote 2 gallon oil can I found in Wisconsin in a old dump site, I know you cannot tell me much without pictures, I have looked at other can on ebay and this one is 7 out of 10 scale. Have I found a gem, I have tried to google and found nothing and google Harrison oil co. Milwaukee Wi and same results. Bear with me I believe the pictures were added

Welcome to Oldgas! Don't know much about your can but a wash and wax may bring it to a 7. Neat that it was cushioned with all them peanuts.

If you have enough packing peanuts in your car, it will be like having an extra airbag in a crash.  Nice can.

There is a quart on ebay. Seller says every time they searched harley davidson came up. They may have processed oil for them but it would not of been labeled penncoat. My search didn't have the same result. Think they may be hoping for a big sale.

Very nice can. Its pretty rare, 1930s era.
Good oil cans don't wait for people, people wait for them.

dish liquid and water then wax with non grit car polish. Will only enhance the look and value.
