Tomato Can with Improvised Handle
From Wiki
TOMATO-CAN VAG [VAGRANT]: the outcast of Hoboland; a tramp of the lowest order, who drains the dregs of a beer-barrel into an empty tomato-can and drinks them; he generally lives on the refuse that he finds in scavenger barrels.
– from "Tramping With Tramps, Studies and Sketches of Vagabond Life" by Josiah Flynt, The Century Co., New York, 1899
