Buckeye Cone Top Find

#1

Post by OhioCanGuy »

Some details on a recent find.

Please Note: I did not find these cans nor did I end up with the lot. I merely purchased a single can. Posting details here for your reference and can story reading enjoyment.

Story goes like this: Remodeling wall find of six very nice Buckeye cone tops. Cans were found in Iowa and eventually made their way to a collector/dealer (aren't we all) in Illinois. The can on the far right took the brunt of the tool being used to tear down the wall. Shovel or crowbar I believe. The number six can was sent to Art for some masterful straightening. I saw the after pics. Amazing! I acquired the 4th can from the left and is shown below on my shelf. To my knowledge, all cans have been sold and sold rather quickly.

I hadn't realized that Buckeye sold so far from home back in the '40's. Sweet find! Looks good on your shelf too. :smt023
