Hi Andrew, I believe this is the same can as pictured in the USBC-2 Supplement, Test Can 241-13. Gorgeous can.

The cans have been removed again.

My thanks for the email instructions to access the updated BCCA website. I followed the instructions. Access was easy.

Midwest meets California.

I picked up some Cans today in a miller collection. I had heard these existed but was not sure. Dolphins, oilers, saints, red skins, rams. All non championship test cans just in case they won. Dallas was the winner so those are all out there. Some other test cans in the mix. Trying to get info on t...

Brilliant collection!

Absolutely super cool cans! When I put together my checklist I tried to include only cans that were actually sold and contained beer. Any evidence any of these were ever filled and sold? (I doubt it) The cans were not filled. They are short sheets from 1954 wrapped over a body blank (circa 1968-197...

The entire 8 can set of Meister Brau International DRAFT Cans from 1968-1970 are back together for the first time in over a decade!

As shown in this thread, there were some crowntainers issued in 1946. It appear cans containing tin plate would wait until early 1947.

I would guess that they at times did bring in less when they were at the end of the auction. Likely due to fewer bidders remaining online, less competition.

Good Guys should not be treated in such a bad way... and by a server, no less.

Storzman, your collection is amazing. Thank you for sharing. Regarding Lone Star being in denial about being owned by National, this was a licensing agreement between National and Lone Star. See the attached article from The Baltimore Sun, Jan 29, 1965, "NATIONAL PLANS OUTPUT IN TEXAS: Lone Sta...

I have always been very happy with my Good Guys Auction wins!

My book arrived yesterday. I jumped right into it. It is SENSATIONAL!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

OK. How about something like this? I'll check this tread periodically and update the list as necessary. What format is the preference? I can do it in Excel or PDF or I can make an image like this: Click to enlarge. Idea.png ( MI-Cans ) Edited to change date format. Edski, Great idea, thank you. I h...

I think I paid about $20 for the one I have.

Exactly.

Just sent in my order. I await the marvelous manuscript with eager anticipation.

I will take one as well.

To me too!

A variety pack for your viewing enjoyment.

Edski, many thanks. This was indeed informative.

Was Mountain Brewing Co in Denver, CO a separate brewery purchased by Tivoli Brewing, or was "Mountain Brewing Co." really Tivoli Brewing Co. doing business under another name?

Thanks,
Bob

Please see the attached picture. I bought the carton from eBay to see if we could determine if it is fake or real. The Continental Can information is there- it is hidden in the eBay picture as it is tucked under the other bottom flap. Note that the numbers all along the edge of the authentic carton ...

Excellent catch. I only compared one side of each carton.

The hard part of faking these would not be in the printing and die cutting... i get prelim samples made often.. it would be in the reproduction of the artwork. That said, a 007 flat sheet could be scanned in. Is there any part of the original photo composition on the box that is not on the can? Tha...

It is likely a reproduction. However, the authentic carton in this post also has "NB-605". Would National have numbered carton designs?

Yes, it is. It is very cool, thanks.

Since we are sharing pictures, I hope you enjoy these.
