Restoration of GWR pattern, point oiling can.
This item, I found as a youth in a gangers on Chicken Curve just north east of Winchcombe.
It formed part of a museum collection in the early days of the GWSR.
Sadly, I pulled the much damaged item out of the skip at Toddington last year.
Here it is looking much happier after fashioning a new handle by flatening out a bucket handle and soldering it to the can.
