Reference: USBC 145-15, USBCOI 875Brewery: Manhattan Brewing Co., Chicago, IllinoisManufacturer/Plant: American Can Co.Date of manufacture: circa 1940sCanning Code: 68 - Chicago, ILContents/Type: 12 ozCondition/Comments: Very tough can that shows its share of issues yet displays quite well. There are areas of loss and scratching, but very little oxidation other than on the lids/rims and seam. The rough rims appear to be a result of the can being used as part of an assemblage of some sort, with those areas perhaps soldered or adhered in some way to other objects. Otherwise, all original. The photos pretty much tell the story on this one. R9 on grade according to USBCOI. R5 off grade. See brightly lit photos. For more info or questions regarding this lot contact Dan via email.
