Description: Up for sale is a special treat for the paint and pigment enthusiast or the antique collector: ONE DUTCH BOY WHITE LEAD 1# CAN NEW UNUSED OLDER VINTAGE STOCK. ++++PLEASE NOTE, ITEM DESCRIPTION HAS BEEN CHANGED 10/18/24 1:35 EST TO MOST ACCURATELY REFLECT THE CONDITION OF THE TWO REMAINING CANS IN THIS LISTING.THANKS++++ The can is in really outstanding condition as compared to similar offerings out there online. Check it out for yourself!This can for sale is part of a quantity I acquired a number of years ago for my personal use. The white lead paint itself inside of the can is completely polymerized and solid. Alas, unlike tubes that stay soft for 100 years+ under proper storage conditions, cans with wide mouths skin early and dry out over time. This is a great item for: 1.The collector of paint related memorabilia and product. You will be hard-pressed to find a better specimen. This can is in outstanding condition. The logo/label has "like new" luster, sheen and crispness. The metal is clean with only light rusting, a moderate amount of blackening (primarily on top of can) or other tell-tale indicators of age or inappropriate storage conditions. Moderate metal discoloration in spots (especially tops of cans) and minimal linseed oil seepage from decades in storage. 2. The painter, paint or pigment enthusiast as a pointed conversation piece. Use it as a paperweight, a bookend etc. This can is very heavy for the size. One interesting knick-knack for adult use only! 3. The pigment and paint experimental fanatic such as I that made a 6-month project out of re-constituting the paint and making some tubes of really nice antique/vintage lead white oil ground! If anyone wants to know what I did, message me. If enough people are interested in knowing I will happily make my message reply public on this Ebay listing! Please review all pictures and feel free to ask any questions before bidding. What you see is what you will get as I never use stock photos. I have 2 of these left for sale, I have added additional pictures on 10/18/24 to try my best to faithfully disclose any and all condition issues. Please note that due to the metal surface and my camera it is difficult to not get a reflection off of the metal that makes the metal appear brighter in spots than it actually is. Thanks for looking. Any questions please ask before bidding or buying.
