Comments/description: Difficult to find as an indoor can. This one is quite good, with just minor speckling on most of the label. Fabulous 1930s typography and graphic of the lion leaning on the barrel marked with the GREATER NY BREWERY branding, as opposed to the earlier LION BREWERY that produced the brand previously. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Looks like the can either sat on a humid surface for a very long time, creating the loss along the bottom rim, or it sat full and was compromised by escaping fumes and liquid of the contents it once held. Whatever the case, the rest of the label looks sharp and has an excellent shine and the spout even has a fair amount of gold showing. A great can.
