Comments/description: Large 30-pound contents canister held a large volume of an egg product that was used by commercial bakers and large-volume restaurants during Prohibition. Yolks and whites were available, though the sticker on the front of this tin is torn so the specific contents are not known. A-B marketed this product (and others) as a means to maintain operations during Prohibition. There is no meaningful oxidation on the container, although there are numerous scratches and denting as shown. Much of the denting may not be fully evident in the photos. The paint is thick and glossy, bright as new. There is a hole at the top of the seam and there is no lid. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
