Brewer/Business Name: Carling Brewing Co., Cleveland, Ohio
Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown
Date of manufacture: circa 1970s
Canning Code: n/a
USBC reference: USBCOI reference: Contents/Type: N/A
Dimensions: 4-inch diameter x 7h
Comments/description: Can is larger than a quart but no contents are listed. Perhaps about 40-42 ounces. Body of can is cardboard with foil label attached that is similar to 42-27 from Cleveland but without contents or plant locations. Lids are metal, with the top having a printed foil image of a pull tab lid. Possibly a promotional item, a mockup of one (similar to the large Meister Brau cans of the 1950s but not as big), or merely a novelty item. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Some light wear to the printing on the body. Minor creases, bubbles, and folds that tend to follow the contour of the cardboard tube seams.
