Brewer/Business Name: Dawsons Brewery Inc., New Bedford, Massachusetts
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
USBC reference: L159-1 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: This variation is like 159-1 but has CCC only on the side panel. Other variation of this book number has CCC8 on side panel. This variation also features the less contrasting yellow burst on lighter orange background. This is NOT the product of fade as the red is bright and excellent. Even retains most of original gold finish evenly on spout. Proper crown. Exceptional. 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.
