Re: Paint over Qwarts and speciifically Eblings beer

Hmm. I had two dumper eblings but both brake fluid. Can’t say I’ve ever seen one out there in nature, not enough data points to guess. Yet, there are some cans largely known from only a single find that would otherwise be practically unknown. Like tayter’s dawson quarts. Perhaps that one big ebling...

Re: Is this rust or varnish?

I'm just about certain your can was found as a "can in a can" in a surface dump. The part that is rusted is what was sticking out and exposed to sunlight. We find this type of can pretty often out west (yours is a western can) in desert dumps. The appears of the glaze is just what happened...

Yes, I've wanted one for a long time.

The seller did not list that the can was full, so I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived.

1937 is pretty close to the beginning of canning. Anyone ever sample anything earlier?

Newest Iron Guts Member

I recently acquired a 1937 Coronation Brew that just happened to be full and was telling a co-worker about needing to drain the contents. He thought it was cool that the can was still full and really wanted to see what it tasted like, so I brought the can to our company Christmas banquet for him to ...

Interesting, but I highly doubt it has a beer label under it.

With Cristy on the bottom, I would bet it's one of the 4 common lighters that you see.

-Torchee

-Pelican.

Jim, how can one tell the cans have already been soaked? What is the tell? The guy I bought about 200 cans from did not seem like an avid collector who cleaned cans; they may have been dipped before he got them back in the 70's. These have been in boxes in his attic for years. Knowing what I paid f...

Welcome to the site! How come everyone says cans like this poster's won't clean We say this because it is obvious to the experienced can cleaner that these cans have already been soaked.
