[Homestead] deer hunting

I just went & looked at my pressure cooker that lynda was ridiculing the other day.  I don't know if it is a canner ; it says "mirro matic" & "16"
the cardboard thing on the top just says pressure cooker, not pressure canner, but the d*mn thing is so big, it almost certainly coukld be used for either, I think?  I don't think it was ever used.  It still has the other paper and cardboard stuff on the inside; the rubber gasket feels like new; and it still has the wire tray thing you would life jars or meats or something out with.  I think it is a 16 quart??  That is probably what the "16" means.  Is that big enough for pressure canning?.  I think I paid $10 for it , 8 or none years ago an old dead person's (actually the dead probably all consider themselves the same age, being dead) estate sale.  ..........
