Condition

Has some nicks in the upper layers of paint that expose the white base coat, but very few that go deep enough to expose metal. No humidity of note. Thus, can is very clean and wears its factory-original finish. The only small dent area contains an outward point from the tip of the church key above the R of BEER and a shallow indent next to it. Appears to be in original as-found condition. Nice can.
