I have a small oil can, on the front it says: “S.S. WHITE LUBRICATING OIL (PERFUMED)” and on the back, it says: “The S.S. White Dental Mfg. Co. Philadelphia, PA”
WHAT IS THIS CAN’s VALUE ?
Have one Gold Crest 10 qt. Can
Sears & Roebuck Co . Still has third can of oil. Possibly original oil.
Stored in basement of home for years. Also have 2 gal. Spur oil can

Any help would be appreciated.
