Summer and the E.H is for Winter. There is
embossed marks on the top, "
Kervoline Emballage Perdu non rupris. Other
wording, "equi-visqueuse

freres aubervilliers"
translates to - lubricate for engines, from
the Aubervilliers Brothers?

discoloring up on the
top around the corner area, slightly dented
down one side, a couple of
smaller shallow dents, normal handling, age
and signs of use one would
expect. No rusted through holes or major
