Comments/description: Fine specimen with that cool roaring Schmidts tiger head busting through the logo on the front. Pretty tough as a j-spout, especially the 4-line mandatory variation that this is. This one is very clean with only a few traces of under-the-paint humidity, though there are scratches and nicks too, some of which have darkened. The top left side has a small, sharply-pointed indent and the lower area has a ding at the bottom corner of the blue box. Another small ding appears below INTERNAL. JS is scratched into the bottom lid (for JIM SCOTT). The spout and seam have been scoured. 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.
