Brewer/Business Name: Ekhardt & Becker Brewing Co., Detroit, Michigan
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
USBC reference: 160-17 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: No alcohol statement on this variation. Perhaps not as alluring as the all-metallic Special design, this one still packs more punch than the subsequent white-labeled Premium design. While the can is, overall, quite clean and has minimal oxidation, it is significantly wrinkled and scratched across all of the label but for a narrow vertical that the right 3/4 of the main label occupies. Many of these ripples and dents are not evident in the photos but, suffice to say, where you see scratching there is also denting or attempted dent repair. 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.
