How many of you have powder or the cans from years ago? Unboxing stuff from storage I came across 3 of my older powder cans (all before barcodes on the can).

I just noticed that the “Superfine” brand was marketed as Gearhart Owens powder as well as Goex. The FFG Cavan on the left is the Gearhart and the FFg can is Goex. These were bought in the 1970’s in Baton Rouge.

The Hodgdon can (see price tag on top) was bought at Steinbergs in Baton Rouge in the sixties. As a high schooler that $2.85 felt expensive. I would love to see or hear about your different cans.
