Comments/description: Scarce can is in excellent condition - rarely found this clean. Both faces are equally clean, with just a little spidering and a tiny spot or two, though one has more noticeable wear to the black at the bottom that resulted from cleaning the rim. The spout exhibits wear scratching too that may not be evident in the photos. Proper crown on top. 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.
