Back when I started learning of all the Aussie brands falling into overseas hands, you name it, it was owned by foreigners, Ampol was a beacon of hope back in the 1990s. Sure enough, the enemy (the foreigner) got their slime riddled claws on it eventually and, worse, wiped this well regarded trademark out of existence -just about. Should be declared a crime to do this.

Here is the tin I found recently in hard rubbish on the kerb -only two doors away! laugh
There is still some oil inside it. eek
Note, in the bottom pic, I have edited it into a mirror image of the underside of the metal cap.
