Picked this up on Etsy.
I am sure it had some sort of label on it when it was made. I would love to figure out what it was, and if posable print out a replacement.

A google search came up with a similar can (less surface corrosion), it did not have any label. The link to etsy shows "Sold Out" for a "Vintage Swedish Black Powder Tin Can 5D brass cap".
 
No, I still have mine.
And I am guessing from looking at this one, that maybe it never did have any sort of label.

I wish the one I have looked this nice.
Well, without the dent.

But then, I didn't pay $60.00 for mine either. :)
 
Are you guys sure these are gun powder tins? There are places in the Swiss that make abrasive powders and such that may offer them in such cans.

I don't know for sure, but the fact that they have brass caps and threads lead me to believe that they probably are.
