Wow is right!! About 10,000% better than the 70’s collection cans typically found in bar displays.

Your son should seriously ask for contact info of the owner.

I bet they were placed in there years ago and over time vibrations have moved the cans.

It's an interesting assortment of cans. Many are really nice but then there is a common Schells and Old Shay mixed in.

It’s about an hour and a half away from my house. As KB’s son heard the cans are the bar owners cans and not part of a Rusty Buncher’s collection. I have inquired about purchasing them and the owner is not interested in selling at this time. Many cans are sideways because of the vibrations on the floor and walls from customers walking and as such they don’t turn them because they are just going to vibrate again.

Several years ago Keith(Can Dr.) and myself took a ride up to see them in person after I had received the lead from a fellow co-worker. I spoke at great length a couple of times with the owner of the cans and he doesn't want to part with them at this time. I keep checking in with him from time to time. Maybe some day...............Woody

The condensed version is that he got his cans from early ebay days in the 90's, friends and family finding things for him and walking the beat. I'm pretty sure that he had mentioned about some dumping too. They had a fire there back in the 90's at some point and he said that he lost over 100 good early trays. Pretty cool how the cans are built in the resessed openings of the windows and are protected by plexy glass and screwed shut. I'm sure that they have had their share of fights in that place with the college being right there. I'm gonna keep checking in with him from time to time. You never know. I just keep my fingers crossed at this point! Woody :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

Guy has a great eye! If anybody were to pry these cans from the owner they might have to take out a 2nd mortgage.

Listed a handful of the gems below, anybody care to list in order of rarity and any that I missed:
Clipper, Bay State Ale, Fort Pitt, Waldorf, Badger Beer, English Lad Beer, Fort Sutter, Kool Beer, Esslinger’s Beer, Burgermeister Beer, Acme Ale, Storz All Grain, Gild Edge, Mule Head Beer, Peter Doelger Ale, White Horse, Pacific, Old Gold, Liebmann’s

I know there are lots of the green Liebmanns XXX around but all or most are Dumpers. Most rough dumpers. His looks like a pretty nice Dumper & I've seen a few nice Dumpers. Paul Chappie had a real nice dumper on ebay about 2 years ago & had a hard time getting $2 or $3 hundred for it. Either none known indoor or 1 indoor known, can't remember which. Same goes for Clipper, common as dumper but rare indoor. That KOOL is Cool & clean looking. LEON.

Interesting a German KVAS can ( a malt beverage made from bread ) is in the mix. (near the Leinenkugels in case anyone wondered what the can was)

It is a tab made by Isenbeck and not really a beer from what I understand. There is some debate about this .Maybe 100-200 in value. Tom
