These types of oilers were commonly used for lubricating machinery, such as sewing machines, engines, or railroad equipment, in the early to mid-20th century.
Key Details
Design: The can features a ribbed or stepped-dome design on the top portion of the reservoir.
Material and Finish: It is made of metal, likely tin or galvanized steel, and shows a heavy, aged patina with signs of wear and minor rust, which is common for such vintage items.
Spout: The can has a straight metal spout
Function: It is a "thumb oiler," meaning the user would press a mechanism (likely on the bottom, out of view) with their thumb to pump oil through the spout.
Collectibility: Due to its age and condition, it is primarily a decorative or collectible item rather than a functional tool.
