USBC reference: 102-39 USBCOI reference: Contents/Type: 12 oz

Comments/description: This is the scarce non-instructional, non-IRTP design, the last iteration before switching to the more contemporary white label. Still has the heavy construction, enamel paint, and classic design of its predecessors but with beaded lids on both top and bottom and no patent information because this can is from Crown whereas other were from American and have both Keglined branding and patent info. Condition as shown plus a soft vertical crease to the right of the seam and handling dings that venture a little further away from the rims to be attributed to canning or movement when in the case. Yellow is from environmental factors; there is no clear coat. VA tax lid on top. A very short-lived variation. 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.
