Comments/description: Some interesting claims are made on this label in the outer white oval: . . . THE MOST APPROVED SYSTEM ADOPTED, and SOUNDER, MORE FULLY FLAVORED AND PALATABLE. They are really pretty meaningless and unquantifiable but they sure sound modern and impressive! Condition is outstanding, bordering on near mint. Replaced top and proper height. Difficult to find this nice. 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.
