Hi gentlemen,
I agree with "danmark".
Wenn you will collect military items like Kanister, you must buy books to improve your collection.
For kanister collectors, the book : Kanister , Philippe Leger & Stéphane Arquille . Is the référence.
Best regards from Alsace , France.
Carfin.

Neither my 1939 Müller can nor my 1944 dated 'FCX' (maker unknown to me, pics on previous page) can have 'Wehrmacht' embossed.
Maker FCX is in fact the code for Müller Schwelmer Eisenwerk u. Co. in Schwelm/Westfalen.

Well now it makes sense. Thanks!

And now I wait for Carlo to provide a present day view of this scene!
Nice '37 kanister too.

Hello!
This time something something different than a jerrycan, but still connected with WH fuel topic. Today I got the original fuel drum, but with a capacity of 50 liters, not customary 200! It is heavier than its bigger sister and believed to be an improvised fuel drop container (that is likely why it had been made of thicker material). It was found with another 10 near Kobylin airfield near Krotoszyn in Poland, where, in January 1945, elements of Fallschirm-Panzer-Division Hermann Goering had been encircled.
The drum had been manufactured by Einsehuettenwerk Thale a.H. in Thale/Harz (nowadays Thaltec factory).
