Re: Recent MI bottle additions

Side collection of labeled michigan bottles grew a bit over the last few months. The Frankenmuth bock is my favorite and still has a cigarette in it. Yeah I know the Berghoff doesn't fit in but couldn't pass up a bock! I'm always looking for more. :smt023 20231014_135304.jpg Love the Goebel on the ...

Bogart and Apache Beer

Happened to watch this movie about a week ago and noticed the Apache Beer bottles on the tables and a sign on the wall, kinda cool. From the 1936 movie "The Petrified Forest", and being a 1936 movie, and being that they were in Arizona in the movie, makes think these are real bottles as we...

Re: Anyone else have this variation Bud ML?

Re-uping an old thread, I came across a listing for a group 70's cans and noticed this odd variant of another Bud malt liquor in aluminum can, not shown in the book under known cans or test cans.[attachment=0]s-l1600

Re: Interesting Schlitz drawn-steel can

I have a very similar can. Mine is almost the same, but with white trim rather than silver. Bottom is white, too. I don’t think they’re fake or fantasy cans. I figured mine was a test can, but just speculating. Very cool, nice to see that there's another out there, I rolled the dice on mine on an e...

Interesting Schlitz drawn-steel can

More than likely not for real, but I'm still puzzled by this can, being drawn-steel and with the 1962 date and also a steel flat top, the top of coarse could have been put on, but the date doesn't fit for being drawn steel, doesn't look to be altered in any way, also where the holes were punched in ...

Re: Ruby Red Bottle

Here's two more Royal Ruby's I picked up not too long ago, these are much harder to come by, a different style 7oz and a "Tall One Way" with stippling, I have yet to see what, if any, labels were used on these.
