Re: Falls City 16 ZT

Eric-Ok, original all the way. Yes, very few 16’s had inserts. I think I may have 2 possibly 3. Fun stuff to know.

Re: Upgraded my most off-grade 14oz

Eric,
Good information to know. Since I’m down to just needing a very few 15’s & 16’s I have been considering jumping into the 14 oz pool, just plan to stay in the shallow end. Major label changes only…..

Ed,
Really nice cans! There just can’t be that many of the gold 16oz CV cans. The CV softop looks like a Schlitz softop.

I was the high bidder on the 16oz CV can from Atlantic. As a serious 15 & 16 oz collector for 35 years I have never had a chance to get this can in anything better than a decent dumper. While at best probably a 1- can, thrilled to pick this up. I also got one of the early 16 oz transitional East...

Re: Shipping Cans for The Dump

In years past the RB chapter established a local POC to receive the dump cans and arrange for transport to the CANvention property. Sometimes that person was also the CANvention committee’s shipped cans guy.
I do not know if the RB contact person has been established.
