Description

Jerry Can from the collection of Paul Joseph Kondrat. Has USMC paint and markings from the Pacific Theater. Allegedly brought back from his service in Okinawa as a souvenir. Made by CONCO in 1944. USMC cans differ from others because of their welding construction and copy of the German filler cap instead of a screw cap, and their more spring green toned paint as opposed to regular Olive Drab.
