Apparently They Hated This Ale

#1

Post by DaveNH »

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.

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.

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! :smt007

Yeah, the hole was the size of a golf ball and the can did sell at $50.

I like it. Adds character to the can. A form of Art Work. Is it for trade? LEON.

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.

A couple I've kept for the collection. Fortunately the Big Cat only has the one .22 hole since it was a paint over.
