Brewer/Business Name: Red Top Brewing Co., Cincinnati, Ohio
Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
USBC reference: 181-6 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: This label represents the transition between the brand flagship brew being called Red Top (two separate words, each with initial cap as on preceding designs) and Redtop (single word, just capital R, as on subsequent designs). This label still keeps the brand as two separate words but drops the second initial cap on Top. Condition is typical of this label which is very prone to spotting. Displays well as the heaviest spots are on the left side. Just a few light dings at upper right. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
Cans may have minor canning dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Larger dings that do not show will be noted in the item description. A thin black vertical reflection may show on some can photos.
