Comments/description: Note the Oakland mandatory. States NATIONALLY FAMOUS FOR GOOD TASTE on the front with PRIVATE STOCK 22 in the red on the side and a Life Magazine logo. It has no Keglined logo, just a P13 canning code, likely Pacific. Replaced top lid. The can has been stretched in a mostly successful attempt to cover gear marks at the top, though in so doing it has almost completely hidden the top gold band. A light impression of the position of the bottom lid can be seen in the gold band there. Half a rim taller than standard. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Cans may have minor canning and handling dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Please review photos carefully for these subtle indents. Larger dings that do not show and those in other locations will be noted in the item description.
