I BOUGHT THIS LITTLE OIL BACK IN THE EARLIE 1980' IN REGENSBURG , GERMANY FORM A LIL OLD GERMAN MAN WHO HAD TON'S OF BUILDING'S OF THING'S THAT HE SAID HITLER HAD TOOK AND HIDDEN. THE GERMAN MAN PLAYED THE ORGAN AND HIS NAME WAS JAKOB....IN MY ENTIRE LIFE I HAD NEVER SEEN SUCH BEAUTIFUL THINGS IN MY LIFE....THE WERE LIKE HUGE LONG DOME BUILDING'S...JUST PACKED FULL OF BEAUTY.
