Lid/Cup: Comes with the original threaded metal exterior screw-on cup.Body & Patina: The exterior shows a beautiful, authentic vintage patina with surface oxidation, light rusting, and wear consistent with age and honest field use (please see detailed photos of the base stamp). No major crushing or structural compromise.Interior: Inaccessible to view because of the condition of the cork, however, believed to feature the classic, early deep cobalt-blue enameled steel interior lining based on research.This is a true survivor and an investment-grade display piece for any antique advertising, vintage camping/hunting, or industrial Americana collection.Shipping & Handling: Will be packed with extreme care using heavy-duty bubble wrap and a sturdy box to ensure the original cork and body arrive exactly as pictured.
