CASPIAN OIL - c.1925–30 Rare original promotional automotive oil can made of double-sided lithographed sheet metal, 2-liter capacity. 20.3 x 16.3 x 6.5 cm. “The Illustrated Metal Can—Etablissements Tilliette, Boulogne-sur-Mer” The colors have held up well, and it retains a decent amount of its original luster. There is significant warping on one side, pronounced oxidation on one edge, and scattered minor imperfections with slight color loss. Founded in the late 19th century, the Société de la Raffinerie de Pétrole du Nord established its headquarters and its first large storage depots in Wasquehal. Hector Franchomme, an engineer and prominent industrialist from Lille (who also developed the famous Delespaul-Havez chocolate factory, which much later created the Carambar candy), served as its first official engineer-director from the time of its founding. From the very beginning, the company specialized in the large-scale importation of Russian crude oil. Nord / Hauts-de-France
