Description: VERY SCARCE ANTIQUE AUTOMOBILE GLASS OIL BOTTLE HOLDER/CARRIER DESCRIPTION: Scans show it all.....Nice antique steel automotive glass oil bottle HOLDER/CARRIER. The specialized bottles are similar to a quart milk bottle and were used in early automobiles to hold and dispense oil during oil changes and addition. They have a long metal spout that screwed onto the glass base for pouring. The containers were made of glass and reusable. Typically, oil was purchased in large cans or drums, then transferred as needed to the bottles and kept ready for use in individual cars. They were kept ready and safe in the carrier like I am offering here. The holder is made of steel and this one is in excellent condition. This would make a great gift or a nice display item for the discerning collector, and obviously a cool accessory to go with your antique car. Especially if you have the bottles to go in it. (I have several for sale on ebay if needed). This was made c.1910 - 1920. Stands about 15" tall overall and the rounded rectangular base is 18 1/2" x 9 1/2". The 8 "holders" measure about 4 1/4" square and are 4 1/2" high. This is an extremely difficult-to-find antique auto or service station accessory, and you will not see them for sale often. This one is in nice condition and will make a nice antique auto collectable. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS!!!
