Brewer/Business Name: Croft Brewing Co., Cranston, Rhode Island
Manufacturer/Plant: American Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
USBC reference: 52-33 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: This variation features CROFT and ALE printed in yellow ink rather than the tan lettering found on the more commonly encountered version. Despite the imperfections shown in the photos, the can retains attractive color and displays very well. A pair of more pronounced dings is present near the top and bottom of the left side of the display face, approximately in line with the "CR" of CROFT. A desirable color variation with strong appeal. 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.
