I did some antiquing today and came up with these little goodies! The GM container is still full! Looks a little gunky though. My question is, what year is it from. It has a part number, but was the number the same every year, or specific to a certain year. It's made in Canada, so I'm not sure if the number will relate to what some of you have down there.

Neat can. Sometimes there is a codified date on the can. Look on the back possibly. Sometimes is shows;as an example; 8-48 after a TM sign.

The can is not '38 or '39 since those years use a different design. The '38-'39 cans have a red ribbon containing the words "GM GENUINE PARTS" in a square between the words "APPROVED ACCESSORIES", like these: ![[Linked Image from i27.photobucket.com]](http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c169/hayre/100_0800resized501938chevaccys.jpg)

So, on the side of the can there's a stamp that looks like two C's together and a -59. Is that the year? I wasn't sure if there was a difference between various years, or if the can is different because it's Canadian. All of the other stuff I've seen is the Black and Yellow theme posted above, but I wasn't sure how many years those ran for. My can is blue on the bottom part, not black.
