Brewer/Business Name: Altes Brewing Co., Detroit, Michigan
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
USBC reference: 150-14 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: Note the Detroit mandatory. Can has some early stage light tarnish in the green that is difficult to detect under normal lighting. Of more importance is a large indent on one face on the word BEER, and large, creased indents between the right edge of the other face and the seam. Other smaller dings and dimples are present elsewhere as well. All that nice metallic green is enthralling. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
Cans may have minor canning dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Larger dings that do not show will be noted in the item description. A thin black vertical reflection may show on some can photos.
