Re: Maier 16oz SOFTOPs - 9 of 10 examples I know of

Scott - thanks for sharing - cool nostalgic photo. Displayable example of the blue letter Regal. I agree the Maier no gold band Regal Select is a diamond - I've not ever run across one.

Interesting that the ABC could have come with that softop lid. Something to keep an eye out for.

Maier 16oz SOFTOPs - 9 of 10 examples I know of

upgrade to my "Easy Opening Aluminum Top" - with Draught Beer Flavor across the front arrived today. From ebay - and was not cheap - but given how scarce I think it is was happy with the sale price. I've only had a chance to get this can once before when I got my downgrade a number of year...

Tampa 14oz flats - 1962 and 1963

I had the 1963 version for awhile - a couple weeks ago the off-grade one was on ebay - I almost passed it by as knew I had that label - but on examining it was 1962 not 1963. 1962 is a common date on a lot of Schlitz brewery cans from all mandatories. 1963 is an odd-ball and not aware it is on any o...

Re: Question about Stoney's tab

MI-Cans - What is different about what you are saying about adding a space with either alpha or numeric character and what I see they have done which is add ONE space and the option to add up to 9 numeric characters to each can ID.

The Contents at the upper left is Contents One Pint and Contents 16 Fluid Ounces - I zoomed in to see which variation you had and noticed they were stacked on top of each other.

My One Pint has a Keglined logo with 23-A, my 16 Fluid Ounces just has 23-A

Jacksonville Bud and Busch

The 8 City Bud from JAX was with two other dumpers on ebay - quite lucky I even noticed it - this variation not shown on the BCCA book site. Pretty faded on the back but it was cheap.

Added to my A-B cans from JAX

I've been looking for this can with a Joseph Schlitz mandatory. The original BCCA volume 1 shows it from Schlitz, the can in my pics from Burgermeister - Div of Joseph Schlitz is not shown on the BCCA website. My opinion is the can never came just from Schlitz and the brewery info just needs to be c...

I really enjoy these end of year posts on best additions. 2023 was a good year on quantity for me - probably cause I really focused on variations and upgrades. Given I only collect 14,15,16 US steel cans - adding 35 cans and up-grading 21 was one of the best years I've had in a long time. Some stand...

no doubt - when I took this photo I thought only 9 left to go, but then add
4 Vancouvers - assuming it only had one version
and now 5 SLC Aged For Flavor Flats I need

So at least 18 more out there

The SLC cans top two rows
