Notes
Cylindrical, narrow-necked, flat bottom receptacle. The body widens below the tapered neck. A thin handle loops around the front and connects at each side - when the can is being carried properly, the handle rotates and extends upwards. The lid sits inside the can's neck and is supported with a lip along the edge. A rectangular metal handle is attached to the lid, above the negative space, flush with the edge. The milk can holds up to 2L of liquid. Narrative: Milk can used by Salomon Hollander in forests of Poland to carry food.
