Reference: USBC 125-40, USBCOI 445Brewery: Jacob Ruppert, New York, New YorkManufacturer/Plant: American Can Co.Date of manufacture: circa 1930sCanning Code: n/a Contents/Type: 12 ozCondition/Comments: Tough instructional featuring the trademark Ruppert spread wing Eagle on shield. Displays well, with some humidity on left side that does not greatly affect the coloration of the paint. In fact, the can looks better in hand than the photos indicate. There area few other blemishes that can be seen in photos, and a couple of small dings that may not be visible. Note that there is a .5-inch area of light wear around the bottom of the label, as if from an attempt to clean the rim (though the rim is intact). Without magnification it is difficult to see that the canning code is 10 AX. See photos or inspect lots in Brimfield, MA or at NABA in Milwaukee for primary assessment of condition.
