Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
I've noticed quite a wide spread on pricing of these cans and I've always wondered, what determines the rarity of each particular can? Let's say the constant is 1+; what determines the "toughness" of each set can? Is it brewery location, color, ounces (11 v. 12), or the actual scene depicted on can?.....

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
I'll preface this by saying that none of this applies to the Christmas cans. They are in a league of their own.
The Jubilees were made in three sets, the cartoon set of six cans is the oldest, has the best graphics, is the least common and for all those reasons the most desired and valuable. These include the sleeping man, people fishing out of the boat, rainy barbque, etc. One design is not any tougher than the other but I personally like the graphics on the one with the lady doing the wallpaper while the dog chases the cat.
The party series came next and has twelve designs. All of them have an image that projects up into the white part of the label. These include the swiss miss, fish can, dartboard, Paul Bunyan and others. Again one is not any tougher than the others but I like Paul Bunyan and the one with the western scenes with the large bridge on the side.
The final series is the brewery series and comes both 11 oz. and 12 oz. The 11 oz. are much more common than the the twelves. This set includes the hand with grain, snowflake and squirels, men at table etc. This set overall is the most common. I don't know that one design is any tougher however it seems like I see fewer of the men at the table than the others.
You don't see certain colors that often but I don't think it drives prices except maybe for pink. There was a huge spike in prices last summer because two idiots were fighting it out. They have both gone away and/or gone broke and prices have come back to semi-reality.
Half quarts and zips are both tough to find. Half quart zips are really tough. Those fetch a much higher price usually than the standard 11 and 12 oz. flats.
Hope that helps.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Wow, that helps ALOT Scott - Thank-you. In the meantime, I flipped through that section in Wolpe and roughly figured, in 12/11 oz. FLATS (excluding xmas & thankgiving cans) there's a rough possibility of 3240 cans maximum based on 18 colors per set (said there's 22 possible colors, but 18 seems the max per set so I went with that). Over the summer I picked a bunch of these up and I'm just getting around now to figuring out which set, can # per Wolpe, etc. each one belongs to. I just hope I don't get too hooked on them...... 3240 is ALOT!

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
I can safely say there are not 3,000+ different Jubilees. I'd be surprised if the true number exceeded 1,000. There are presently just over 500 different Jubilees on the wall in my garage. If I bring home ten from a dumping trip, normally about three are ones I don't have. Less if they are brewery series. If there were 3,000 different, or even 2,000 for that matter, I'd have an easier time finding new ones.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
A clean indoor Jubilee with the Reindeer lid is extremely tough to find too. The first Brookdale show is when that guy showed up with all the ongrade/Clean Jubilees and I asked him if he had any with the Reindeer lid, and low and behold he had just one. Grade was 1+
My Jubilee collection consists of
5 Christmas cans
1 16oz
1 Reindeer Lid can
1 Zip top
I have been slowly selling off my other Jubilee cans. And I agree with Scott that there was a window on EBAY of 3-4 months where Jubilee series cans were going off at crazy $ prices!
All it takes is 2 guys that hasta have it!

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Doing the cataloging (sp?) now. Turns out of the 23 I picked up in a collection this past summer, 8 are from the cartoon series (7 set 1, 1 from set 3). They're pretty cool once you sit there and really look at the graphics. Now going back to see what else I've got.....

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Just my 2 cents worth on dumping jubes. When I was growing up in Montana, I always seemed to find jubilee cans, but they were always the last set of the bunch. I can't remember ever finding many of the first 2 sets. Now that I've been dumping in Idaho, OR, and WA, I seem to find more of the two earlier sets. I still find the last set but there seems to be a little more variety the closer you get to the brewery they came from (Spokane or Seattle). I've also been fortunate to find several cases of the half quart jubes, both flats and zips.......I'd dig those all day One thing with the jubes, there are so many different colors and the 3 different sets, it's always fun to find them as there is usually a good variety of colors/scenes and generally preserve fairly well for 50s cans.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Can someone also post a picture of the Reindeer lid that was talked about?
Here are a couple exmaples of my Jubs:
Sorry about the blurry second pic. Hopefully the third one is less blurry.
The first two (first pic) are 12 oz, the last pics are my 11 oz.
No picture available of my 16 oz.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Here are my Jubes. All the same scene, guys drinking beer on a bench, all 12 oz flats. The bottom 5 don't have the "Rainier for Life" slogan. The other differences are Seattle vs. Spokane and the shading of the characters clothing, which is quite noticeable in the photo. The top right can is an Reindeer can from AlaskaChris.
I am pretty sure that there is a yellow color to this set, maybe even some sort of red as well. Always interested in trying to get more of this scene, let me know if you have a can from this set.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
That's a cool idea to collect a certain scene of the series. BTW, great story about the reindeer can and how it evolved.
Currently in a collecting funk. Waiting for the bug to bite again to get back into collecting some type of cans, on a small, affordable level.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Hey John S--
I've got a yellow 11 oz from Seattle with Rainier for Life in the gold band in my collection of your scene........I'd also guess there is probably a 12 oz version as well. I'd agree that there probably is some shade of red color in this set. Since Scott likely has the largest collection of these, maybe he can chime in here. Also check out Mark B's link to the Jubes, great info.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Perhaps I get my set names mixed up. The first set has six cans, the are
Rainy Barbque
sleeping man
fishing in boat
dancing elves
wallpaper lady
golf
The next set has twelve so regardless of what you call them don't be confused by the chronilogical order.
I looked at my men a the table cans last night. In twelve oz I don't have any colors not picutured in John's photo. In 11 oz. I do have yellow, red/orange & mettalic brown.
This picture is old an I've added more since but here is the wall 'O Jubs. It's three photos spliced togethter so there is some overlap but you get the idea.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
I believe that the Party Series should be broken up into two parts. I have never been able to locate any 16 ounce cans from the second group. Therefore I am inferring that it is a separate and distinct group from the first Party Series group which are available in 16 ounce.
DRINKING SONGS; "Roll out the Barrel"
GEOGRAPHIC; Golden Gate bridge*, Mount Rainier *REVISED
GAMES; scrabble blocks, bowling, chessman
HOME ENTERTAINMENT; men at barbeque, couple watching television
SPORTS; tennis, skiing, mountain climbing
TOASTS; Rainier Stein, "Good Luck"
BEER GARDEN; beer kegs, pretzel, people at table
DIAMOND JUBILEE; interlocked wedding rings, bicycle
FOOD; chef pouring beer, salad
HUNTING & FISHING; frying pan & coffee pot on campfire, man & fish
PARTIES & MUSIC; party scenes, keyboard, singer
PAUL BUNYAN; Paul Bunyan & Babe, log rolling
If anyone has a 16 ounce from the second group (to prove me wrong), please post a picture!

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Here is a shot of the CARTOON Series:
BARBEQUE; dejected man standing by grill as guests run from rain
DO IT YOURSELF; woman hanging wallpaper while bothered by cat
DUTCHMAN; a Dutchman in wooden shoes
IN THE NORTHWEST; mountaineers scaling peak to find party
OUTDOOR LIFE; golfer failing to sink putt
SURPRISE PARTY; guests dropping in on a man in pajamas
And the two that don't fit in any of the "Series"
Plain; silver checkerboard
Christmas; turkey, candle, etc.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Put down the pipe and step back Dan
That is the Narrows bridge not the golden gate, the towers are different. The original Narrows bridge collapsed long ago into Puget Sound, not the Columbia river which isn't even near Tacoma.
OK you can pick the pipe back up now

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
Sorry ' Dog - its Golden Gate! look at the footings.... plus, the can shows a road map with California on it... if it was strictly NW cities listed, then you could make the argument it was not the Golden Gate.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
That might be the Golden Gate Bridge. In 1952 the Seattle brewery bought the "Rainier" rights to the area formerly served by the San Francisco-based Rainier (which was bought by Hamms). The Party series came out in 1953. (and yes, it came out before the cartoon series, which came out in 56). If they were expanding markets then using the San Francisco landmark would make sense.

Re: Rainier Jubilee Series Can Question
I am with Dan & Ed on the bridge issue. The Golden Gate Bridge has the same substructure and superstructure elements as shown on the Rainier can. The bridge roadway on the Rainier can is also quite wide, from the pictures and movies I have seen of the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, the roadway was not very wide, just marginally 2 lanes when constructed.
