Brewer/Business Name: Goebel Brewing Co., Detroit, Michigan
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
USBC reference: 71-4 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: Note the Detroit mandatory and the unusual EASTERN PREMIUM BEER lid on top. Possibly a re-lid but we do not think so given the bottom is still off and there are no telltale signs of replacement. Condition is good, with tarnish darkening only the red. There is some minor humidity in the copper but, overall, the can still shines nicely. Aging and wear is evident at the rims and the bottom has gear marks. 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.
