Which One Would You Keep?
Dug the one on the left last week and the other one last summer-both up in Maine. Both cans have issues as you'll see. Any opinions would be great. Thank you!
Thanks. Dave

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
The one on the left...IMHO
The one on the right has a Silver side panel instead of gold or is it just faded/washed out ?

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
The one on the left is the better display of the two, in my opinion, and looks to be more solid. They are both great finds and choice cans.

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
The left one. It's the better looking can even with slightly less color than the right in my opinion.

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
Thanks for all the great feedback. I had to think about the southpaw comment for a second, but it came to me. LOL. Wow, that's an overwhelming vote for the one on the left. I must be in the minority as I was thinking the right one which had less paint bubbles, a cleaner Kent Ale wording, but the "by Krueger" is less readable as are both panels. The bubbly paint is killing me though on the left one. Hmmm, what to do, what to do... Thanks guys.
Thanks. Dave

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
I'd want to douse the one on the right in WD-40 real good and wait six months or so before deciding.

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
Left, although the face is what we look at the most, and both have issues. If the right can's bottom face was more like the top of the face then I might have picked right.

Man your on a dumpin' roll... I'd keep both for now, and go dig one that would replace both of them.

Re: Which One Would You Keep?
Both! For the front, use the one on the right,
for the back, the one of the left.
