FS Squarish British gas can

[maple_leaf_eh]

My old neighbour passed away a month ago, and the son has been clearing the house and garage so he can sell the property. Today we talked about how children of the Depression never threw anything away (as he filled two 24" dia garbage cans of short lengths of wood).

A long time ago I noted Geoffrey had two square sheet metal fuel cans about 10"x10"x14", with a spout in one corner of the lid. The son gave me one. Are these called flimsies?
