Comments/description: USBC 68-28 OI 331. Early Patents Pending design features OI panels on each side of the seam. Tough can with R8/R7 rarity. 1936 origin. Condition is very good as shown, with small marks and a little light tarnish, but no single egregious flaw. Both rims have a few canning/handling dings near them. Lids and seam are nice and clean and the can shows very well. A fine all original example. All items are original unless otherwise noted.
