Vintage Motoring 'Renault' Oil Can.
An automotive brass plated round oil can made in France. A fantastic piece of vintage motoring ephemera, the perfect gift for the motoring enthusiast. Who would have thought the mundane garage oiler of the Golden Age of automobiles would be a collector's piece. The motorist's oil can with embossed lettering 'Societe Anonyme Des Huiles Renault' in the center 'R Huiles, Renault' and 'BTE. S.G.D.G.'. There is a bracket for hanging the oil can on the rear. The plating has some rubbing with the brass metal showing through.

The pump oil can dispenser is a great standalone piece or the start of an automobilia can collection.

"BTE. S.G.D.G." stands for "Breveté Sans Garantie Du Gouvernement" and translated means: "Patent without guarantee of the government", this is the name of a patent as it was in France until 1968.
