I picked this full “OE-10 HD Oil Engine”, oil can up today, I think it may be late WW II vintage, what do you think? I would appreciate any thoughts and comments.

Thanks for looking,

BKW

The WWII US Military grease and oil cans had a change over in 1943 from silver/ chrome with black lettering to the OD green paint theme. I'm thinking the same with yours is late war to pre war Korea .

 

These cans can be very reasonable to buy. I've also been collecting these cans as well and some are rare and over looked in military collecting and also under priced.

 

 

photo of the 1943 dated can last used in the silver-chrome I also have a 1943 dated can in the OD green.
