A fantastic original piece of British garage and motoring memorabilia, believed to date from around the 1950s/1960s.
This original metal paraffin storage and dispensing can carries the period REGENT - SUPER GREEN PARAFFIN branding to the front and retains a wonderful aged finish and patina.
It features a cylindrical steel body with conical top, screw filler cap, folding carrying handle and brass dispensing tap at the bottom.
The original Regent Super Green graphics are still clearly visible and give the piece loads of character. The green painted finish has naturally aged over the years, with areas of wear, surface corrosion, scratches and marks consistent with its age and original working use.
I have deliberately not restored or repainted the can, as I feel the original patina is a large part of its appeal.
A great display piece for a:
Classic car garage or workshop
Man cave
Petroliana collection
Automobilia collection
Vintage garage display
Pub, bar or restaurant
Period workshop or showroom
Condition:
Original unrestored vintage condition. There is age-related paint loss, surface rust, staining, scratches and general wear throughout. Please study all photographs carefully as these form an important part of the description.
The filler cap, carrying handle and dispensing tap are all present.
Please note: This is being sold as a collectable/display item only. The tap and container have not been tested for storing or dispensing fuel/liquids and no guarantee is given regarding their functionality or liquid-tightness.
A lovely original piece of British petroliana that displays extremely well.
Any questions please ask
Thanks, Somerset Speed Shop
