NYNH&HRR oil can question

  by Abington
 
I picked up this oil can recently from an estate. I'm trying to put a range of years on it. My feeling is that it is from the 30's or 40s, but perhaps someone here can help me pin down the date. It is about 31" tall and the can is about 4.5" wide and 8" tall. Thanks!

The links aren't working - only showing black/white "!" images.

If ImgShack isn't infested or whatever the scare was a while ago, re-upload there.
