Can you identify these containers?

Does anyone know what these containers were used for? I posted a similar container not too long ago and now these have come to light via a friend. A more likely use than I first thought could be containers for gunpowder? Any ideas on when these were made or in use? Where were they made?

  1. Possibly to hold carbide and water to generate acetylene gas? Maybe to supply a stationary light in a mine? A wild (very) guess.
