Date of manufacture: circa 1940s
USBC reference: 185-14 Contents/Type: 12 oz

Comments/description: Smooth, clean example with a beautiful display face. A bit of aging evident on the sides includes the only oxidation spot on this otherwise humidity-free can. Right side and face have several ripples, dings, and kinks - most of them rather small - that do not show well in the photos, including a curved 2-1/2-inch surface scuff between the mountain peak and BEER. Also note the light rub area on the contents that is easy to overlook. 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 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.
