Beer can mug collection
I started back in to these a couple of months ago. About 14 years ago I had quite the mug collection...several tough cones, 4 different Krueger OI's and so on. I haven't seen too many of these for sale lately, most are having the handle removed and lids put on. That wasn't a problem back when I started. Below is a photo of what I've been able to find so far and a photo of one mug that I used to have that I'll probably never find again. Extremely rare!!
Looking for Illinois, Missouri and Texas steinie bottles. Looking for US stubby bottles produced between 1936 - 1941. Looking for ACL beer bottles. looking for St Louis area cans and certain Chicago area flat top cans. Holy Grail bottles are Old Albuquerque stubby from Albuquerque, Wagner Beer steinie(1937) from Granite City, Ill. and Goldcrest 51 steinie, Schepps Stubby, White Rose Stubby both from Dallas

Re: Beer can mug collection
I always take one to parties.....great conversation starter with non beer can folks. Pour my beer into them or fill from the keg and drink out of it... Everyone loves the old labels.

Re: Beer can mug collection
That is the one. It was actually $9.99 but the photo was fuzzy and I didn't know it was WFIR until I received the can! The can was not on the Lewendowski's composite list of OD and WFIR cans so when I sent them a photo they about ****! They made me one hell of an offer that I couldn't refuse. i have no idea where the can resides. I heard later that a flat sheet of the can was found making 2 known.Mike S wrote:Is that hamms the one you got off ebay for like $6 or something crazy like that?

Re: Beer can mug collection
Kenny Ostrow had a great set of miniature tiny little mugs made out of a single Krueger beer baldie (I believe it was a baldie). There were three of them or so, made with lids like a tankard and I think a pitcher. Very neat. Don't know if he still has them for sale.

Re: Beer can mug collection
bradflinders- is $60 shipped a reasonable price on the green Goetz? It's really nice. I got this mug in a bundle trade so I really don't know what it's worth- Bjorn

Re: Beer can mug collection
That price is spot on. Last year, before I started collecting the mugs I had 2 of these in similar condition. One sold for $55 and the other for $65. PM me a paypal address and I'll get payment to you ASAP

Re: Beer can mug collection
bradflinders I picked up a couple IRTP PBR beer mugs today at auction, some really nice PBR cans will be surfacing soon with new lids- most were cups. Shoot me an offer on choice of the two, or both! I'm keeping two in similar condition. Bjorn

Re: Beer can mug collection
Wisconsincanman....thanks for the offer. That one looks home made. I prefer the ones with the factory rolled lip and applied handle.

I've picked up these 5 at antique stores in Maine. Of course the most popular mug in Maine would be Falstaff. Who knew? Steve

Re: Beer can mug collection
Senator,
Followed your link to an album of 1,000 pictures. (It's down loadable by the way - 94.5 MB!) Was this the basis of your trucking expedition to Fort Wayne?
Looking at the the collection of pictures, I found the two mugs pictured below. The first one is what appears to be a commemorative can I've never seen. Anyone have any guesses as to what it is?
The second one is a Sapporo (from Japan?) with handles and screw tops. I would guess 2 liters? (MI-Cans)
