Artistic 2 Gallon Petrol Can Collection

These photographs represent just some of the 300 plus 2 gallon petrol cans in Steve's Father's collection. Steve's Father is a sign writer by profession and demonstrates his artistic skills in restoring 2 gallon petrol cans. There is some superb artwork on display here and it shows what can be done with those plain cans that turn up in an abundance. Now, not all of these cans are plain, some are embossed but can you tell the difference? Knowing how hard and time consuming it can be to restore petrol cans Steve's Father must be congratulated not just on his endeavours but also on the exemplified standards he has worked to.
