Rawley Douglas and John Tucker tied at 140 points with CT as the champion. CBS has RD placing 2nd and John 3rd. Nice picking gentlemen!

The specs are great! Just did a search on Ebay of beer and eclipse- 6 different micro cans right at the top of the list. I think you invented a new specialty. Andy

Re: We Know It Was Produced But None Are Known to Exist
Does anyone know the MN collector who saw invoices for Robin Hood beer? I think it had to be Metz not Storz as they seem to have continued with the brand after 1937. BTW it probably was beer not Ale- Fontenelle and then Metz both seem to have just made beer.

Re: M. Frahm & son city brewery Davenport Iowa 1890's
That thing is awesome! looks like it was just Mathias Frahm from 1850 to 1884 and then M Frahm and son from 1884 to 1894 when they became part of the Davenport Malting Co group. Andy

Re: Paper Label Crowntainers- Our story so far
I confess I just threw the Bock label up as I had nothing at all on the Schlitz Bock can. Very curious to see how close they are other than the Bock font and that mine has a date and the can does not.... Does a Schlitz specialist know if that means it really is a mock up and not regular production c...

If you are so inclined only 2.5 hours left to make a bracket. Still 12 from last year that haven't..... Not that I would ever point out that C.E., or J.P. or T.C. and other regulars on here are MIA...... That's not CexyedUp at all (Sorry Rawley I know I slaughtered that).....

Paper Label Crowntainers- Our story so far
Bill's ad post looking for crowntainers got me wondering exactly who all used the striped blank crowntainer- which quickly evolved into how many different paper label crowntainers are there really? Images from cans are stolen from various RB threads or Crowntainer Central (named all theirs with thei...

Here are some prize cans to pick from for the top three finishers. In the event of a tie I'll think of something horrible and grossly unfair to all.

Re: Your favorite Antique/Flea market finds
My folks went to a yardsale in Phoenix that had a bunch of cans from the 80s in a crate. Guy having the sale let them have the Apache wooden case for $5. Cans were $1 except his active ashtray can because it was a flat top...... perfect....8oz Sir Lady Frothingslosh.....

Re: Looking For Crowntainers
Sorry to hear it was a problem can but sure seems solid that way. Have you ever seen anything other than a Jordan or Gluek on the plain striped crowntainer? Weird it was just two Minnesota breweries using them.

And then there was 1- nearing completion of a label specialty
So a couple years ago I decided to try and get 1 label at least from every brewery in MN and WI that actually produced. Minnesota has 37 post pro breweries listed but, as near as I can tell only 26 actually went into production. After a recent TT auction got down to just 3 missing breweries, and one...

Re: Totally Bummed Today
I'm with Steve on this- The bane of specialization is when you get too close to completion and the degree of difficulty to add anything goes up and up. I'm sure this has happened too many of the really high end collections. Ron Dick would have people jack their prices just because he was the one int...
