The goat drinking the beer came out the best!! That's the key part of the can.

I checked the Labatt Blue and 50 cans from B.C. they have no mention of the % either, Are there any B.C. labels of Molson Ex or Canadian or Labatt Blue or 50 brands with 8% proof?... just wondering if these brands were introduced after the regulation changed. Another possibility is that some brands...

Wishing you all the best from the north country. Keep fighting and hope to see you soon!

The 1967 labels have the statement including some Molson (except for one Okeefe label) and the 1969 labels do not have the statement.

It had to do with early liquor laws in BC. The earlier cans say more that 8% proof (ie more than 4% by volume) and the later ones give an exact amount of 5% by volume (10 per cent proof still more than 8) Thanks Tom, I had often wondered what that was all about, Oddly the early Molson Canadian and ...

I stumbled across this while looking for early beer can advertising this morning, and I wonder if anybody here has seen it or knows anything about it . . . is it a flat bottom, how old is it, are better/additional photos available? The link is to an overview of 9 2/3 oz. cones which is the source d...

Get well soon, John!

Thanks, Rand.

Exactly what I was looking for. Got a handful off the Internet that I have to rotate and edit and I'll post them.

Wow! You guys are really coming up with some great lids! Keep 'em coming. And thanks. I won't be updating the collage images until I assemble a handful of them. If I thank you for your post, that means I've got the image set aside and it will be included (unless it's a duplicate). Thanks again. ( M...

Neat subject. Thanx for posting. These are the original documents presumably kept in a climate controlled location with limited light exposure. Over time, I suspect that the environmental factors only increase the variability in color. That said, I am in the process of reviewing and standardizing t...

Welcome from the land of the Black Horse Cones!!

I'm from the province of Ontario here in Canada and my first thought was Molson Canadian but that's what I am and would not be representing my province, then Eric posted the most well known brand from his state and I thought of Carling Black label or Carling Red Cap as they both originated here in ...

HERE IS THE CODE FOR THE TECATE CAN DATED 1947. POSSIBLY THE OLDEST WESTERN HEMISPHERE CAN OUTSIDE OF THE USA. Is that code this pattern: http://www.mbcinfo.com/KarasekHome/CanCodes/1947.jpg Again even that nice of detailed photo, canning codes are hard to get super clear. Seems that would be 1947 ...

Thanks for all of your help. Makes you wish all of the other manufacturers dated things the same way. Canning company employee collections are often good because many had the exact date on the can.

As great that picture is, I can't quite make out the small mark behind the canning code. Sweet can. At a Blue/Gray many years ago I was given a handwritten page of American code symbols, work from Robert Porter and Kevin Lilek. All I did was turn the hand drawn symbols into digital images and a web...

@foreigncanman If I'm understanding you correctly, you're looking for a two patent Keglined logo. I believe I came across one while doing my Logos post. Below the logo, it has A.C.Co, I'm guessing a 70A or 90A, followed by what appears to be a bow tie symbol used for dating. Image isn't the sharpes...

Here is a picture of a 2 patents flattop. Any idea what years this would be from . It was sent to Mexico hence there would be no irtp tax

Here is an old Continental test can dated 1956

The brown and cream Moosehead (23-26a) has no contents listed...Maybe the Mule can is a Canadian can because the fellow who chopped it down is Canadian... Good point about the Moosehead which is also possibly a test can. But your theory of a Canadian ,possibly a lumberjack, chopping it down is intr...

No contents on can. Cannot think of any others like that. No French anywhere . Are there any Canadian cans like that ? How does it measure up to the 16 ounce can.

I never knew the Kingsbury was so tough . I picked up 2 of them years ago at the guzzle and twirl.Was shocked at the price. Whoever got our trader got a heck of a deal.
