Usually only water cans have the year and the manufacturer in relief on the top part,while on gas cans the lettering is indented in the bottom.
However some gas cans have year and make on top.I have seen this feature in 43 only,by Samco,Cavalier,NSI.Does any one know of other makes and years?

N.S.I. etc...
Hi,Philippe. It happened to me to mistake INS and NSI,but then Al Brass set me straight, as there are points that prove it= N.S.I.
Yes,Monarch as well made GAS cans with lettering on top,I think I had mentioned this on an old post predating this forum,and then forgot to mention it again.
Samco,Cavalier,Monarch made WATER cans with the lettering on top,but that is the usual way for Water cans.(See sticky list)
