Comments/description: A portion of the proceeds from this lot will be donated to NABA. Rare cone top version of this 1950s label. Something of a sleeper; the flat top variants are so much more numerous that it is easy to group this can in with them, which is a big mistake. Condition is very good to excellent, and the can is clearly an above-average indoor example. Its most notable imperfection is tarnish in the gold yet a lot of clear reflective metallic still shines. The enamel portion of the label is quite nice, with only minimal aging. There is a ding near the base of the seam below PALE on the left side that does not show well in the photos. 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.
