Brewer/Business Name: Dawsons Brewery, New Bedford, Massachusetts
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
USBC reference: 159-2 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: Can is clean and shiny despite being darkened throughout from tarnish. Still displays well due to the uniformity of the tarnish, and there is only one isolated spot of oxidation on the cleanest face. This is a pretty tough label as an indoor find, one that we believe is underrated. 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.
