I know Dave Wheaton would like this one, one of his favorite cans I think he calls the Candy Strip Schmidts. Tough to find this clean or in any condition. LEON.
Hi Leon, the cans says 'The only American beer that bears this emblem'.
Can you show a picture of the emblem? I just got to know. Thanks, Billy.

I don't remember what it is, but apparently it wasn't a very good process judging by how hard it is to dump these cans.

This is all I could find on the walsnek process. Personally I think it's the name of the brewer's son-in-law or it means diddly squat. For you young folks diddly squat = nothing. :neutral:

Got these yesterday from a guy that works for Campus Security. My shop is across the street from Colorado College. I'd chatted with him occasionally and he knew I collected beer cans. He was checking a vacant building the college owns for squatters and found these 2 cans. I hope there might be more......

Nice examples of those Country Clubs especially with those lids.

One (left one) is third Iteration of Zip Tabs (Slot or U Tab) and the other (right one) is first generation of Ring Pull Tabs (Slot or U Tab). Identical except for the actual tab. With the tab removed, you're looking at identical slot openings. Exactly what I brought up in my Zip Tab Summary.

Recent pick-up:

White Seal Brewery - Flint, Michigan.

Kiewel’s operated a Michigan branch from 1939 to 1947.
This brewery location later became the Valley brewing company from 1949 to 1952....they canned the Heidelburg conetop. The building was torn down in 1992.

No offense to anyone having previously posted or currently posting in this thread.

Could I suggest to Dan to rename the title from "New Acquisition Wednesday" to "New Acquisitions"?

I don't check it just on Wednesdays. I check it every time there's a new post. It would at least eliminate the need for the poster apologizing because it's not a Wednesday.

I like Wednesdays.

I also collect comic books and Wednesday is the new arrival day and everyone stops at the comic book shop to pick up the latest releases and shoot the breeze and talk about comics.

So, 'New Acquisition Wednesday' is something to look forward to every Wednesday.

Doesn't matter to me what day you received an item, and no need to apologize and it has been a tradition for four years now.

I say keep it. I like Wednesdays.

P.S. No offense to anyone having previously posted or currently posting in this thread #711.
