Variations Of "Cap Sealed" Promoting
I don’t have any cone top cans but over the years of visiting the RB site and the BCCA Supplements, I noticed different variations of how breweries chose to promote the “Cap Sealed” brand from Continental Can Company.
I broke it into three groups, single panel, two panel and vertical rectangles, both narrow and wide. Abbreviations are as follows: RS=Right Side, LS=Left Side and B=Back.
The first group consists of single panel promotion. On only 1 side of the can, the “Cap Sealed” information was displayed using various graphic styles and personalizing the wording to suit their products.
Single Panels
The second group obviously is made up of two panel promotions. The “Cap Sealed” information was found on two sides of the can. Some were on opposite sides. Some were on adjacent sides. A couple were actually a mix of the vertical rectangles and panels.
Two Panels
The last group of images shows variations I found just in the vertical rectangle promotions.
Narrow & Wide Rectangles
For those of you that collect cones, nothing earth shattering here.
Maybe someone might be looking for a subordinate niche to branch off their collecting skills, this might interest them.
In any case, hope you can enjoy what I uncovered. It was very enlightening for me.

Re: Variations Of "Cap Sealed" Promoting
@MI-Cans Ray Knisley did an August 1998 Rustlings article on this very thing. Did you check your findings against his?
Since there is no known article I was able to find in the BCCA magazine, I was hoping you'd consider having this included.
At the very least a posting on the BCCA webpage by @idigrust Danny. Since more information might roll in it would be a living documents with updates as needed.

Keith, you're welcome to pass it on to Joe Prin. If he wants it, he can have it.

Re: Variations Of "Cap Sealed" Promoting
What I always wondered is what was the reasoning for cones that have variations of Patents Applied For above Cap-Sealed or below Cap-Sealed. Rainier cones come to mind as a brand that has cones with both variations. And it’s not like there was any variation to what was on the panel: Trademark, Cap-Sealed logo and Patents Applied For.

Always looking for cones or cone variations I don't have.

@rusteditor
A search of the BMV only produced this article on a Gov't mandate. Doesn't explain why the format was in several variations. Maybe they were allowed to structure as they pleased as long as all items were included. They certainly were allowed freedom with the text content and structure.

Re: Variations Of "Cap Sealed" Promoting
Thanks for starting this thread Ed. I've been wanting to do something like this for some time now, but other things always seams to get in the way.
I had forgotten about the Rustlings article that Ray did, but I do have something to add to it.
Like Ray, Jerry Glenn (RB #45) from Newark OH was also one of the early big time cone collectors who really got into the fine details and had a wonderful cone top collection. When he was selling out I bought much of the tail end of his collection. Out of the blue in September 2009 I got a letter from Jerry. It contained note book pages with these original hand drawn images of many different "Cap-Sealed" panels. The same ones that were in the Rustling article. He just said since he didn't collect cones any more someone who did might appreciate this information. I always assumed it was Jerry that drew these up, but based on the Rustlings article, maybe it was Ray. Maybe Ray @Baxter can shed some light on this?
The post below shows 3 pages of hand drawn panels. Jerry actually sent me 4 pages. Here they are.

@Conehead
Jim,
I went back to the BMV and I believe your 4th page was actually the cover for that issue. That's my belief. So I added it to my post above. Thanks.

Re: Variations Of "Cap Sealed" Promoting
20+ years ago, and you want me to remember?
Those drawing are Jerry's. Since we both collected cones, we worked on the fine details.
Those were the days.
