Comments/description: Unlisted yellow variation of the Ale design, this one without the 75th Anniversary text on the left side. Otherwise, this label is identical to 132-12. Can is lightly to moderately aged, with signs of humidity/darkening and wear throughout, though the surface remains very smooth and still has a shine. Much of the gold metallic trim is missing and there is fade to the red. Still remains highly presentable. A former mug, it has file and grinder marks on the seam from removal of handle solder and a newly added top lid. It is the proper height. 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.
