Vtg 20s TEXACO Axle Grease Can Tin w/ Contents Texas Company Port Arthur Green
Vintage can of Texaco axle grease most likely dating from the 1920's. These early Texas Company cans were nile green with black lettering and the red Texaco star without its later white circle. Can is 1 1/4" tall and 3" in diameter. Weight is about 6 ounces. One little swipe of axle grease has been taken out; the rest of the original contents remains. Nice lettering and colors.
Can is in good vintage condition. This one does not show the dents, scrapes and hard wear that many grease cans of this era do. Most of the original paint is present and the colors are fairly strong, but the paint surface is aged and has a fair amount of crazing/crackling as seen. There is some staining/darkening from the grease, mostly on the side of the lid and can. One small dent on edge of lid. Bottom is very solid with full coating of original paint. Lots of photos to illustrate condition.
Payment within three days of first invoice.
