Collector Appeal

Irving Velco cans are among the most recognizable Canadian oil cans and are highly sought after by collectors of Atlantic Canadian petroleum memorabilia. Early color variations, including red, striped, and heavy-duty versions, are especially desirable because of their distinctive graphics and relatively low survival rates. Vintage Irving Velco quart cans continue to appear in collector markets and specialty petroliana collections throughout Canada.
