Pretty crusty but I don’t care. It is a brand I have always wanted to dump.

I dig them a few weeks ago on my way to the Tucson show. They were in a hole with a dozen or so equally crunchy Coors

Mitchell's is one of the first cans I ever found when I moved to Albuquerque in 1978. One afternoon, Dan & I brought home 3 or 4 cases. I also found some 1-sided in the High Sierras of all places.

I lived in El Paso for almost 10 years. Mitchell's were hard to find in the immediate area because the desert is awfully harsh on cans. If you got up in the mountains or somewhere you could find them sometimes. Also one of my favorite cans to dump--great job!!

Very cool. Not caring about crusty, an RB motto.

I've lived in El Paso for 17 years and probably the best Mitchell's I've found is just a ghost can where you can see the outline of the label. It's a really hard can to dump here. Even if they got buried quickly they rot out.
I dump cans and cars, if you find old cars & trucks while dumping, please let me know.
