Item Description
Original Item: Only one available. Offered in very good condition, this is a totally original 1944 dated Petrol "Jerry Can", with a DAK desert tan paint job. We can see the red primer under the paint where it has worn off, but it definitely does not look to be the original paint job. We do not know whether it was repainted during the war, or post war. The side of the can is embossed with the identification and maker information:
Kraftstoff 20 L
Feuergefährlich
1944
das
187
Wehrmacht
This translates to "fuel 20 liters - flammable", and maker code das is a known maker of WWII Jerry cans, which has never been identified. Many period examples have been seen.
Offered in very good solid condition, the body of the can is dented in on both sides, and shows some rust but no holes. A very hard to find original Jerry can in operational with great German WWII markings! Ready to display!
Approximate Measurements: 18"H x 14"W x 6 1/2"
