Old Bullseye powder can

[spencerhenry]

A friend ran across some old reloading stuff. In the box is what appears to be an unopened can of Bullseye. It is an 11oz can, metal, about 4" cubed. It looks like it was made yesterday.
To me it is a really cool old can, does it have any collector value?

I found a similar can in a box reloading stuff that I picked up at an estate sale, but mine was empty. I kept in around because I thought it was cool. The way the lid works is very interesting.

The powder, if good, is worth more then the can, i think? 1960s cans.

I still have several old powder cans. I need to find the photos.

Got some old ones to, need to build a shadow box for them. Got one old dented can that just says Dupont Gunpowder. Old, like lid is fused old.

I ran into these 2 cans this morning one on the left I have 8 full cans LOL.

I have a Bullseye like that, I use it as a container for Bullseye that I load from an 8 pound jug.
Same thing for Unique and 2400.

People do collect them but I have no idea about it’s value. Like all collection condition x 3

I like collecting "old" stuff. Have old Lyman casting boxes, an old Hart .22 FB bullet box with some heads, paper shot shells, hensoldt & wetzlar 6x scope, Leupold pioneer 4x scope, and of course one of my great grandfather's old Dupont powder cans. I'm always looking for more stuff.

That said, I have no clue on values
