Looks better than the stupid ones they sell now where you have to undo the cap and then pull a spout out that's been soaked in gasoline and get it all over your hands.

Re: The Jerry Can
Yes the humble Jerry Can is often overlooked but was one of the great designs of the 20th century.

Reminds me of one of my favorite childhood shows:

Not the most realistic, but a fun show...!

Re: The Jerry Can
It certainly beats the 21st Century, EPA approved replacement. One thing on the American version I quite like, is that standing seam at the bottom. Makes a grand handhold for controlling the rate of pour. Mine has either sat on a concrete floor or held in a rack for over 45 years and still holds whatever liquid I keep in it. Wish I could find a couple more... Even surplus outfits can't sell them in Dallas, some city fire code thing... !
