Comments/description: Similar in design and content to a paper laminate sign illustrated with a Pabst OI can and steinie bottle! PABST is recessed in metallic silver, while the can and steinie are both embossed. The coloring of the can is true to life as the sign is manufactured by American Can Co., the manufacturers of the can. All items are original unless otherwise noted.

Condition

Exhibits scratches and nicks as shown, though bends and kinks are of more note even though they may not be as evident in the photos. Sign is quite clean and shows little effect of moisture but has assumed a bit of a V shape when viewed on edge thanks to the stresses mentioned above.
