<p>In this volume the author covers the smaller companies, the agents and the retailers that were such an important part of the gunpowder trade. Oriental and Hercules are, or were, major firms but most of this book is devoted to the names that are all but unknown, except to a few advanced collectors. Again the majority of the examples shown are from the Bacyk collection but another major sorce has been found in the Hagley Museum and Library. Hagley is connected with Dupont and many extremely rare cans, kegs and labels are from them. Samples from a few individual collectors are also included. Numerous illustrations. 8.5 inches x 11 inches.</p>

<p>Old powder cans and kegs are colorful, historical and highly collectible, catering to a variety of interests. The Bacyk collection is probably the most extensive assemblage of powder cans, kegs and related memorabilia in existence. The quality, rarity and scope make this collection extraordinary. To date there have been minimal references for these collectors to determine rarity or value of cans and kegs. This book is focused on the major American manufacturers: du Pont, Laflin &amp; Rand, American Powder, King and Hazard, plus their related companies.</p>
