This should be a photo of the best old can I found at my uncles.
My grandfather lived in the town of Naylor, Maryland. There was an international shipping port there many years ago: water deep enough for oceangoing ships of the era, and tobacco. The docks and warehouse was used by the British in the War of 1812 to offload troops and supplies.
My grandfather would walk to Nottingham, the name of the port, and catch a Clyde Steamship to where the Inner Harbor is in Baltimore now. Farming supplies would be bought and be loaded onto another steamship headed to Benedict and Nottingham Maryland. This can stayed in the house to store pies for Christmas, then later decorations.
The steamships were a smaller model of the ones used on the Mississippi, there is one in Alexandria, VA from a different shipping line.
