The picture is an indication of the tin. We have several in stock and don’t take a picture of each one.

They are easy to pour. I’m not sure why the Swiss army had such small petrol cans. The only explanation I can think of is that this was replacement gasoline for motorcycles.

History:
They were used by the Swiss Army during World War II. The label is made of brass. The surface of the tins has slight surface rust. They are still in usable condition. Delivery in original condition without cleaned labels.
