Comments/description: Note the small cream-colored logo and lack of alcohol statement on this variation. While the can is very clean and smooth all around, it suffers from loss along the bottom and small flecks higher up on the label. The bottom rim has some oxidation but is otherwise very clean so this may be due to a leakage issue. If so, the can has since been emptied and a 1950s crown applied. Presentation is very good, with the affected area pretty much limited to the lower half of the label. 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.
