Comments/description: A portion of the proceeds from this lot will be donated to NABA. This is the variation with ABC in a narrower font than a similar version with notably heavier weight lettering. This example is quite clean and humidity-free but exhibits scratching and nicks throughout. Nice straight can, no dings or kinks. Can is air sealed and is the correct height. Late 1930s design is Patents Pending. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Cans may have minor canning and handling dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Please review photos carefully for these subtle indents. Larger dings that do not show and those in other locations will be noted in the item description.
