Re: New set of shelves

Absolutely looks great! I have yet to build my shelves, and seeing others such as yourself getting yours up inspires me... Thanks for sharing and congrats on the accomplishment! You have several examples that I am totally jealous of! Keep it going! :smt023

I find it hard to believe that Modelo didn't make the list of worst beers. I've never put a more vile beer in my mouth, and that includes iron guts offerings.

Re: 2022 Rusty Claus Secret Santa

Dear Rusty Claus,
I've been good, but haven't been able to get out much this year to collect the old cans, so if you have any old Goebel flat tops around, they would have a welcomed spot here with me!

Thanks again! Have a Happy and safe Holiday Season!

To any and all Rusty Claus's out there. I know that this is well beyond a late posting.

Doesn't seem to be a beer can lid. I give up. What was it? It's certainly not a cone top, like the listing suggests.

Re: Does anyone remember Yahoo Auctions ?

Ebay was bigger back then, so it had a bigger buyer base, but ebay also had listing fees where Yahoo...

Like anything else, it's worth whatever anyone is willing to pay for it. If it makes the buyer happy, kudos to them. Classic '70s appeal though... like a Volkswagon Beetle with a Rolls Royce bonnet...

Dear Rusty Claus,
It's been a pretty slow year, and didn't acquire much to put on the shelf. If you could find any common 12oz flat tops from the 50's, my shelves would be very happy! Merry Christmas
