<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 164299, member: 44&quot;]I suspect the Hills Bros. Coffee date from 1952 to 1963. Look at the following *.pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file of &quot;Hills Bros. Coffee Can Chronology Field Guide.&quot; Specifically scroll down to Fig. 14 (1952-1963A)and 15 (1952-1963B). In the diagrammed pic of the can look at #62. This means the left shoe is fully visible. Also see how the word &quot;THE&quot; starts under the middle of the logo&#039;s shoe. I think the logo is suppose to be an Ethiopian. Fig. 13 has the word &quot;The&quot; starting under the back of the shoe. The numbers are charted below the pics. I can&#039;t see enough of the sides of your hmmmm.... can to determine anymore similarities. Can&#039;t think of another word for a can **** of this type!</p><p><a href="http://www.arlis.org/docs/vol1/83267994.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.arlis.org/docs/vol1/83267994.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.arlis.org/docs/vol1/83267994.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>As to the Eagle Mfg. Co. Gasoline Filler can, I suspect this probably dates no earlier than the 1950s??? Here is a listing of completed auctions whether sold or didn&#039;t of these on eBay. I don&#039;t know if any sold.</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_nkw=Eagle+Gassoline+Filler+cans&amp;_in_kw=1&amp;_ex_kw=&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;_udlo=&amp;_udhi=&amp;_samilow=&amp;_samihi=&amp;_sadis=15&amp;_stpos=38654&amp;_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&amp;_salic=1&amp;_sop=12&amp;_dmd=1&amp;_ipg=50" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_nkw=Eagle+Gassoline+Filler+cans&amp;_in_kw=1&amp;_ex_kw=&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;_udlo=&amp;_udhi=&amp;_samilow=&amp;_samihi=&amp;_sadis=15&amp;_stpos=38654&amp;_sargn=-1%26saslc%3D1&amp;_salic=1&amp;_sop=12&amp;_dmd=1&amp;_ipg=50" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_nkw=Eagle+Gassoline+Filler+cans&amp;_in_kw=1&amp;_ex_kw=&amp;_sacat=0&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;_udlo=&amp;_udhi=&amp;_samilow=&amp;_samihi=&amp;_sadis=15&amp;_stpos=38654&amp;_sargn=-1&amp;saslc=1&amp;_salic=1&amp;_sop=12&amp;_dmd=1&amp;_ipg=50</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
