Brewer/Business Name: Jacob Ruppert-Virginia, Norfolk, Virginia

Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
USBC reference: 127-1 Contents/Type: 12 oz
Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h.
Comments/description: Tough Ruppert Virginia label. We find these Virginia cans are always extremely difficult to find clean and this is about as good as they get. There is no humidity on this one, just some light surface wear and small scratches at the top where the opener was pried against the side. No evident in the photos are several vertical facets/creases from production and dings at the top of the seam and around CANNED. Virginia tax lid on top. 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.
