Here we have a superb miniature "Shell Motor Spirit" Petrol Can.

It dates from the 1920's.

A superb item.

It measures 4.5 inches tall x 4 inches wide x 2.5 inches deep.

These were seen on the running boards of some pedal cars in the 1920's.

This one is  superb original condition.Just a few tiny nicks and scratches and a couple of small dents only.

(I've had a few of these,and this is the best one I have ever had!!)

Superb,bright colours. (Sort of metallic red with Gold lettering).

It has it's original cap/lid and a superb embossed "Shell" logo on the top (see photos).

I would say it is very near mint with a superb patina to it.

Looks great on display.

A very attractive,and rare item.

You will struggle to find a better one!!
