Apparently They Hated This Ale
Dug this last week in Maine. Too bad it's riddled with bullet holes. I guess this is an example of why this label didn't last too long.
Thanks. Dave

He hates these cans! Yea....that's what happens when you get your name in the phone book.....that's the kind of spontaneous publicity, your name in print, that makes people! Things are going to start happening to me now.

There was a Kent Ale at BG during the snowy year (2014?) For $50 where the guys face was completely shot out with a bullet hole.

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
Aw, I love those bullet holes! Gives the can extra personality, as if being so rare wasn't enough...
It just goes to show that those early original beer cans offered something that beer in bottles couldn't...
More than one shot during target practice! Nice can!

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
Yeah, the hole was the size of a golf ball and the can did sell at $50.

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
I like it. Adds character to the can. A form of Art Work. Is it for trade? LEON.

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
There was someone who was doing this awhile back. Not sure if they were only ones he dumped or if he got some from other collectors as well. Damned if i can remember who it was.

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
I think he would look great alongside these beauts! Andy C. found the Hop Gold, Scott Field the Leidigs, the rest I dug up. Regal tab is a shotgun can
Still need to soak the Eblings.

Love the Kent!
Fun Stuff!
Here's mine, If you give the Leidigs a little push it will rock for around 20 seconds.

Re: Apparently They Hated This Ale
A couple I've kept for the collection. Fortunately the Big Cat only has the one .22 hole since it was a paint over.
