    Description

    This is a very unique, vintage oil container of some kind.  Made in Japan, this original piece features a dog with a plastic body and metal head, with the number 440 on the side, "MADE IN JAPAN ", and a triangle with the letter N inside. (This is a symbol for "Nippon" or Japan prior to 1920.)  Because the words "made in Japan" are also on this piece I believe it is from the early 1920's.
    Measures approximately 5 inches talls and just under 2" wide at widest part (dog's chest).
    Please see condition description and pictures.
    This item is from a smoke free estate.
