A couple of old oil cans

I was at an estate auction sale a week ago and the auctioneer couldn't get any bids. I thought they'd look good in my man cave. Both need to be cleaned up, but that might be a project when the weather gets colder. The Quaker State can doesn't have much paint on the front, probably the reason that nobody wanted it. The Montgomery Wards can is in decent shape. It might look better when I take the dirt off. Both cans are empty.
I remember when MW went out of business in the early 2000s. (I got an Admiral-branded CD player so cheap that my co-workers thought I'd stolen it) The current MW online-only name has nothing to do with the early Wards.

Some of us see the neat diamond in the rough items & if you can use them as a display while consequently storing them that is great!
