Information
If you have ever changed your own oil in your car, then you may be one of the many individuals currently collecting the hundreds of brands of old cardboard or tin quart motor oil cans. The variety seems endless and can also include the smaller household oil can brands, and even vintage thumb activated dome shaped cans.

White and Bagley's "Oilzum" goes back to 1905 being the first standardized brand name lubricant. Here, the company's pound can of grease is shown.

On behalf of my husband, when we bought our 1904 home, one basement ledge was full of the small oil cans and some outboard motor cans. I just added one tiny oil can and something we have never seen before: an Alemite Model 6562 grease gun made by Stewart Warner. Still has grease in it. He's thrilled.
