Perhaps you should read ALL of the replies before your above reply.
I suspect that an historic aviation / motoring museum knows a little about Shell aviation fuel cans.
or you could try a little harder - from a certain site
"Shell, Shell Mex, Shell Mex & BP. - Aviation 1930/35 Golden Brown but not metallic Gold!! "

Profuse apologies henry k, I didn't see the link to your post. I've emailed , as you suggested, an enquiry to Brooklands. May I humbly ask for a link to the Shell Mex etc. site you refer to, this restoration is for my Dad who worked all his life for Irish Shell in its various guises.

No hard feelings.
to confirm the site I referred to was
members.chello.nl/b.voogd5/fuel_cans.htm
They may be another good starting point.
www.vintagecollectibles.co.uk/petrol-cans.htm
There are a lot of enthusiasts out there. Some even in Ireland but this is not aviation

Try contacting Shell who will probably have some sort of archive to reference?
Good luck on your quest
