Re: Most expensive tab
You are thinking of the Viking Draft from Spearman. Wasn't that a pull tab? Was into 5 figures in some auction recently.

Re: Calling it a restoration doesn't cut it.... ebay fakes
Wow. That guy is a clown. Does he not know that the value of the bottles is the label? A complete facsimile of the label is nothing more than a fake. There is no restoration about it. Holy Toledo.

Thanks for posting! With the way these die cut signs are going these days, I guess I'm a rich man! Those things have sky rocketed over the last 20 years.

Tollware cone spotting
Should I buy this Tollware cone I saw at an antique store? It was priced at $18. Manufactured by Cristy. That flat bottom is a little off-putting, but maybe there is a goody under there....

@hemmings Thanks Hemmings! This is a treasure trove! I just spent a few minutes typing in Atlantic Ale and Jax Beer and tons of ads came up. This is going to be fun foraging through this! Check out this Jax beer ad from 1916!

Re: Narragansett 12 Pack - JAWS Edition
Very cool! If you are going to the Canvention, you should bring a case or two of those full with you. They would fly out of your totes. I would love to drink one of those just for the novelty of it.

That's the same sign. You can see where the rust is in the exact same places. Whoever cleaned it faded the sign out pretty badly in the blue area. Still very cool.

Re: My newest "Andy's" Hillmans OI
Yes, I have to agree with the other guys. I don't think its good for the hobby to encourage people to manufacture realistic fake rare beer cans. Try to find another way to rebel against the dealers. Also my two cents.

Holy mackerel. That is a ridiculous collection. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of breweriana there. Be sure to tap the little photo icon at the bottom corner of the picture at the top of the article to see all of the photo's.

Wow. What a fantastic and useful piece of work. Thanks to you and your herculean effort. Kudos to Dan also. It's comical how so many of the cans sell at prices with absolutely no consistency. I guess that's true with any auction, but when you see it starkly on the page it's eye opening. I bet the fe...

What were the med students at Columbia Univ drinking in 1952?
I picked up this cool old yearbook at an estate sale today from the Columbia University medical school back in 1952. It was located in New York city. These medical students apparently liked to party. Check out these pics and see how many beer cans you can identify. I think I've figured four of them ...

Re: Morean Auction - June, 2022
Can anyone explain this? There is no way a knowledgeable beer can collector would pay this much for a common can like this. It has to be some outside speculator parking (hiding?) money.
