Oil Cans ! Love them....I let them soak in oil for a awhile then clean them up and admire them. I like the copper ones the best!

Nice collection of oil cans,,, and that is unusual. At least you will not run out of oil when you need it.
Not sure about in the USA, but they dont make those type of cans anymore.... umm pity about that though.

God bless

EDDEKALB, I used to collect them also as a kid.... eventually my Mother used to get too spooked from them. I came home from school one day to find them all missing I also got a big warning about collecting any more of them

Stacylee926, I think hair slides etc are counted as unusual.... I hope you clean them all first? some funny diseases out there

MEinWV, hehehehehhe you sound sadistic,,,, as a kid we used to play war and soldiers, and we used to use fireworks to blow their heads off

Green1,

Natman, I also have lots of keys, they are great to keep.... I have 1 brass fire hose adaptor which I got from a gold mine. They are heavy

Monty, you can have all my junque if you like, that will help to build your collection nice to hear from you budd...

N.J.THer, With the amount of different pulltabbs out there these days, they could look good as a picture in a bar

God bless you all,
Peter
