Antique Questions Forum / AJAX Sexton Can Co. Industrial Barrel found in Barn unique & old need help
« on: May 24, 2014, 06:05:27 pm »
AJAX Sexton Can Co. Industrial Barrel found in old barn. 18" across & 26" tall Red paint and metal with mounted outside vertical ribs and rivets
Engraved into metal is the number 18 - Reg US PAT OFF - Sexton Can CO
I cannot find anything about this Old barrel or information related to it. ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated
The barrel weighs about 25-30 lbs it has 2 side handles that hang down with a chain attached to one handle
Someone told me it may be from AJAX laundry powder shipping container or storage from the early 1900's
The uniqueness of the mounted on the outside ribs with rivets seems to make sense that its older and pieced together rather then 1 weld.
If anyone can help me with this and needs anymore information please message me anytime Thank You Tim
