Hall of Shame
Being true collectors of rust, how many have a threshold of what they'll put on their shelves? I have my Hall of Shame out in the garage, cans I've found that were destined to stay in the minors.
Starting with the bottom row, L to R, the only Tivoli Gardens flat I've dug, Hamms zip that had a tab failure (only opened about 1/8"), Pabst Bock pat. pend., Coors flat with a concave bottom ???, A-1 10 oz. Top row L to R, Century concave bottom, 8 oz. Fox DeLuxe OI, and the crowning glory, my gr. 1 Silver State back.

Fortunately the collection has all the "shamers" in better shape, some more marginal than others. What's the cone in the upper right? The Kreuger looks like the brother to my shelf can...

Scott: Your the one to decide what to keep in your collection, NOBODY ELSE!
I wouldn't of kept them either except in two cases. #1 They were from Pa., such as my Stroud which is BAD! #2 I can remember exactly how I dumped it, such as my Rheingold Golden Bock. Can still remember crawling under a porch in upstate N.Y. and chipping it out of the ice. It was the only we found on that trip or now that I think about it any other! Harry

Actually, it looks like a "CI" can rather than an "IC" can!

One step at a time, Mike. I got his dues sent off this morning! And you're right, we partnered on all those cans, so let's see what's in your hall...

Rand i dont see the leaning tower of ballantine beer, did you upgrade? I always liked the way that can looked on the shelf because it looked like it shouldnt stand up. here is a old pic of my shameful cans, the only one i still have is the rams head because i dug that. also another can i had fun digging last year..Great topic!

There are at least 4 of those cans that would make my shelves. My theory is "it's better than the one I don't have". Rand's IC is better than the one I don't have. I sometimes just can't toss a can...because I dug it!
The bullet hole Hornung could start a whole new thread. I'll toss in my candidate for now though.
My guess would be a .22, and if you look closely, the can is a paintover. Working around the bullet hole was a pain...

I guess I don't have much of a threshold, because these are all shelfers.
Bottom: Krueger Cream Ale, 89/22 & 23, Cab, Eastside Ale w/bullet hole.
Middle: Old Wisconsin, Ox Head, Jacob Ruppert 125-40, Mule Head Beer.
Top: Dingle bay, Bay State Beer, Fort Pitt Beer, Apollo.
Many thanks to the contributors: Paul King, Dan and Ed Scoglietti, Chris Solari and KB.
I love this topic!

This is my favorite subject, too. Most of these have been posted, and I have more, many more. These all fit my Coloradoklahomaespanish collection.
Rand, your beauties make me smile.
I think my two cones have all y'alls beat, though. But your Cab, John, is mighty nice along with Rand's "CI" - although, I can't figur out what the LoPro is behind the running waiter's left shoulder on danielj's pic.
Out, out -

Glad you like the O.D.d Running Waiter, Tom.
Here's a couple of other virtual O.D.'s, Goebel 70-31 and Union Cream Ale.
Thought the backfaces of the Bay State and the Old Wisconsin go well with the bullet holed Eastside Ale.

And here is my bullet hole can, its a Big Cat malt lager under a Black Label.
John, My Dingle Bay looks like a twin to yours. And its off my shelf along with the Fort Pit Running Waiter flat grey.
