Up for sale is an exceptional, highly collectible vintage, NOS, Canco, 1-quart Mobiloil Aero (Grade 1100) motor oil can from the Socony-Vacuum Oil Company. This is a rare aviation-grade variant featuring the iconic Red Pegasus graphic and distinct red band styling.
This piece is New Old Stock (NOS)—it remains completely full with its original oil and features the original factory seal entirely intact. It has never been tapped, drilled, or drained.
Condition Details:
Please review all photos carefully to evaluate the condition for yourself.
Graphics & Color: Excellent display condition. The colors on both the front and back graphics remain vibrant and bright, with minimal fading. Both sides display beautifully on a shelf. The white background has some minor surface dirt and light storage wear typical of age. I did not attempt to deeply clean it beyond giving it a gentle rinse under warm water.
Body & Authenticity: The metal body features an authentic stamped CANCO mark on the clean bottom lid. The can has a few small, minor dents and a slight pinch on the upper outer rim crease, typical of vintage age and storage handling.
Rims/Seals: Top and bottom rims show minor shelf wear but remain securely sealed. There are no major punctures, seam separations, or active leaks. The side seam is completely secure with no sweating or oil residue.
Shipping & Handling Terms:
Due to this being a full vintage oil can, it will be shipped strictly via Ground Shipping (USPS Ground Advantage or UPS Ground) to comply with transit safety regulations and avoid cargo air pressure issues. It will be wrapped heavily in protective bubble wrap, enclosed in a sealed plastic barrier bag, and securely boxed to ensure it arrives at your doorstep exactly as pictured. No international shipping due to liquid contents.
Sold as-is as a vintage petroliana/aviation collectible. Please ask any questions before purchasing!
