Comments/description: Desirable, elusive Bock label. Spotting, humidity, and darkened scratches in the brown are difficult to see in some areas but are pervasive throughout the label to some degree. Can is very shine considering the blemishes to its surface so it presents fairly well. BOCK BEER lid on top. All items are original unless otherwise noted.
