This vintage January 1935 Shell Motor Spirit can is stamped "Reads of Liverpool" 1 - 35 on its bottom and is therefore likely indicating this is a much rarer can a VALOR stamped one. Reads made cans for industrial/commercial use and not retail. It has its original brass cap and is a unique collectable piece that represents a bygone era in transportation advertising. The can embodies the nostalgia of petrol and oil advertising from the past, making it a charming addition for collectors of vintage memorabilia. Its originality and brass cap add to its appeal and authenticity, making it a standout piece in any collection of transportation advertising or petrol industry memorabilia. Please see photos for condition.
This product would be a great fit for collectors of vintage gasoline products.
