    Description

    Vintage antique hot dipped galvanized watering pail.
    Has "#16" in center of ring on inside bottom of the pail.
    Cream City brand - manufactured by G.P. & F. (Geuder, Paeschke & Frey)
    G. P. & F. was out of Milwaukee WI (also Sheboygan WI and Lebanon IN)
    G.P. & F. was formed in 1909
    Pail has been in my family for "many, many, many" years.  My family was based in Wisconsin, so this makes sense.
    Dimensions:
    11.75" high
    12 3/8" wide at top
    9 3/4" wide at bottom
    Handle is intact, sturdy, no sign of weakness
    Seams solid
    Nice patina to entire piece
    Clean - ready for display, add some flowers, grasses, ornamental seasonal items, what ever creative ideas you can come up with.
    In full disclosure, there are a couple of rust spots on the inside bottom of the pail where the galvanized material is flaked off - see photos to confirm condition
    Non smoking home
    Hate to give this up because of the history of the piece.
    Hoping to find it a new home where someone will display, use and treasure.
    Please buy it before I change my mind!
    Thanks for looking, see pictures to confirm condition.
