Vintage Steel Milk Can Pail One Gallon with Lid "Normal Sandy" This little, but very heavy 5 pound, 4 Qt (1 Gallon) dairy can with a bail handle is in great antique condition. It's embossed on the front "Normal Sandy" I believe. Could it be two side by side cities? I did a pencil rubbing over it buy to try to read it better. Size is approximately 8" wide by 9" tall with lid, and 12 inches tall with bail handle. All weld points are tight and secure. It holds liquid. The inside of the pail has some spotty rusting and the inside of the cover has a bit of corrosion on the weld joint.
These cans were used for delivery of milk or cream products from the local dairies directly to homes. The lid is very tight fitting and comes off with a bit of effort. This is a beautiful and charming item that appears to have been painted black. A great piece to add to your farm home decor or collection.
This is pre-owned, vintage item. Signs of age and/or use are to be expected. I've attempted to show the condition as accurately as I can.
