Vintage Aluminum Tub by Unic L’Hoir Aluminum Company, Quebec, Canada. This portable wash tub would be ideal to use as a beer tub, rustic garden planter or for canning. Produced by the industry changing company who stopped the embargo on Canadian Maple Syrup shipments to the US in 1942 by manufacturing & the adoption of aluminum sap collection pails in the effort to eliminate lead from maple syrup in Quebec. Georges L’Hoir went on to produce other larger basin & other aluminum food safe products like this. This is a rare find & a great part of Canadian History. Stats: 16 plus inches across at the lip & 7.5 inches tall. Check-Up: Excellent vintage condition with character from use. Multiple even surface scratches & a couple of small dents. This movable double handled basin has part of the Unic L’Hoir sticker on the side & the original stamp on the bottom in the maple leaf.
