Chevrolet parts and service garbage can Original?

[SuperNovaSS]

I bought this along with a small collection of parts that have been in storage for a long time. Is there anyway of telling this is original? If it is, what era would it be from?


Thanks,

... worked at a very old dealer as a kid and had friends at the other's in the area..never saw one there..how scrungy is it around the bottom couple of inches...everyone we had was a little rough from the old broom even in the parts dept...and the ones anywhere near the shop had a protective layer of oil to prevent rust,lol...could be a repop from the 80's when they were making a bunch of that kind of stuff

It has an inner can so you can take the top off to dump. It is fairly clean but it has obviously been around(dings, oil, etc.). Looks to be old but you never know. Looking for tale tell signs.

Thanks,

Can't sleep so----Did you look for any manufacturing stamps on the can??

[SuperNovaSS]

No, thought I would check here first. Any ideas where to look?
