British Jerry Can marked for Water

Jim Price · #1 21-09-09, 06:46

I recently purchased a useuable British (broad-arrow marked) '"Jerry" can dated 1944 which has a crude "W" painted on it. As it has been painted US olive drab, I'd like to have it repainted with the correct color and have the proper rendition of the "W" painted on it. Does anyone have a picture of an original water can? I'd certainly appreciated any help any of you out there can give me.

Thanks!

Jim

Radek,
Thanks for the pictures! They will be very helpful when I repaint the can!

Best regards,
