    This old can brings back a lot of childhood memories. I used to ride my bike up there and buy parts for it.
    I have most of the Cato oil company cans, but I haven't seen this bottle before. Still has good color.
    The ink blotter is also from Cato oil and show all the armed forces insignia
    and pay grades form WWII. It is dated 7-3-42

      I have my great grandfathers pension papers from being a civil war veteran, he was awarded 365.00 annually in 1932.
