Nice job Marc. I'm impressed that you knew where these came from. However, these came from barn 29 in 1998, This is what I got.

Re: RIP Dave Lang

Sad news travels fast. I just babbled on about my friend Dave, but it did not post. Those that know us knew we where buddies of dumping, beer, and just friends. My name, Can Dr. was a gift from him. I am tired now, and will post again about some of our follies, but for now I ask a toast. I'm looking...

Re: Class Pilsener Over/Under?

Is Tom selling? I see the Brockert pale quart, and I thought that would have been his? It has been a long time since I was at Tom's, but a great collection. I hate seeing these old collections being sold.

Re: Lion Beer Bock

Okay, I was waiting for this to come up on this page. This can was in Martin Landey's collection. I'm not exactly sure of the year, but it was after Martin had his first heart attack, around 12 years ago. I was contacted by local collector Wayne Ronn, who was contacted by friend Jim Stempleski, and ...

Re: RIP Brad Meister

I can't say I knew Brad well, but always enjoyed seeing him at Blue/Gray.

After the break in the regular Blue/ Gray I never saw ...

Re: Glued Cans

Is that the glue at the top of the can? Any attempt of cleaning, or trying to remove anything from a can: glue, plaster, concrete, etc. I recommend starting with warm water, then hotter if needed, and no harm from the warm water.

Re: Old Topper Snappy - White Lettering - USBC 178-6

Kurt, Read your post, what is the difference between the spouts on the yellow, and the white? I have all three cans and could see no difference in the spouts on the toppers, but possibly a straighter line on the Bruck's. I'll look through my stock, I may have one, but do not know if it it white, or ...

This came out of an estate sale. As for the story, it is fun when unraveled from the Sunday at 9AM open that I pulled in at 10:20 Saturday night to place my name on the list to enter. I ended up establishing the list, so I was #1. A nine hour stakeout to protect my place on the list.
