This is a gunpowder tin manufactured by the Dupont Company in the early 1900's. The tin measure 6" tall and 3 1/2" wide. The original red color is still very bright, with just a couple of scratches on the back. There is a small area on the front where it is slightly discolored, and on the left side. The painted label and all warnings, and descriptions are still as legible as the day the can was made. Above the label is a warning in black, "EXPLOSIVE DANGEROUS". Below the label in black is MADE IN U.S.A./Net Wt. 1 Lb. or 434 Grams. This will look great in an early 1900's rifle or shotgun display.
