New find of unrolled sheets

https://m.facebook.com/groups/BreweryCo ... ef=m_notif

There seems to have been a double fund of some really nice unrolled sheets.

Anybody know anything?

Re: Coulee Region Beer and Brewery Collectable show

There is no tie-ins with any of the national groups. Strictly an Omni Center show.

FYI, the Old Style Chapter show will be taking place at the same location on May 7.

Re: Duquesne paint over

Steve’s post got me wondering. Did some checking and found a Duquesne can that has a primer strip. Bottom opened fan tab to boot. Now I need to get some rubbing compound. Can you post a pic of the whole seam, Might be able to play the guessing game on what it might be ?? Thanks, Joe Here you go

Re: Enamel Fox Head 400

Good catch on that red spot Joe. The only way I’d go the rub out route was if I was guaranteed to get a New Yorker. Don’t think that’s what’s under there though.

Enamel Fox Head 400

I just picked up a very nice 66-13 Fox Head 400. This is the enamel blue and silver version. The only examples I’ve had previously were dumpers. Looking at this new one, it appears to be a paint over. Does anybody have one of these with a clean seam that they can share pics of? Thanks in advance

Re: Has anyone ever cleaned a pre-pro Oil can?

The wrap came off without any problems. This is what it looks like with the bulk of it dry. There is still some sheen visible depending on the light and angle you’re viewing from. I think I’ll let the evaporation continue for a bit. The paint seems to be solid. The black splotches on the good face f...

Has anyone ever cleaned a pre-pro Oil can?

I found a thread in the cleaning forum from 2007 that discusses cleaning an oil can. Has anyone tried doing that since then? I have a can I might be trying to clean that is from the 1910's I think. It is oil soaked and wrapped in saran or some other type of plastic. This was a fairly high dollar ite...
