How many of you remember……

Well I am over fiddy and when I was a kid most of the products you would use those items for were changed or improved to not need them.

Likewise the oil can stabber spout.
Gramps kept the spout he said to just remember how much a pia it was to use one.

In the guards when we got go to Germany, we discovered those type of bottle openers were still needed.
But most convenient handrail corners could be used.

So here's to you folks that remember using those items.
 
I actually enjoyed the cold scrambled eggs and ham in a can. I'll eat anything. Even balut. After a few San Miguels at Peso Jimmys. :)

Working as a pump jockey in 1970, Texaco Havoline oil in the paper "can". Used that spout. Messy. And the can went into a drain drawer in the metal oil display on the island. Plastic container underneath collected the excess oil. Bossman had us dump the containers into the bulk oil drum at close of shift. Bulk oil was $.50/quart. Bossman made money off of the oil you bought. Girls wore miniskirts. 16-year-old boys enjoyed washing windows. Ethel and high-test...good stuff.

yeah, at the last garage i ran, we had a 55 gallon drum, with that drain setup...all great Mobil grades of oil.

talk about a "multi-blend"

it was used in the company "jeep"...really a 1966 ford bronco, and free for customers who did not have cash for a quart of oil, that just needed 1 or 2 quarts.

even the owners wife we'd used that oil in her car, for her oil changes, but of course, a brand new fram filter.
