Re: Qt Discussion Thread
I know Mr. Upsidedown has a couple quarts.
See this thread for one that I rubbed out.

Re: Qt Discussion Thread
I have 6 upside down quart cone tops in my tiny collection of upside down beer, soda and oil cans, license plates, US civil war era revenue stamps and US currency.

Re: Qt Discussion Thread
I’m late to the quart discussion party, but thank you to everyone who contributed to the composite. It’s very helpful. Three questions (and my apologies if they have been previously addressed):
1) For the Pabst Milwaukee quarts that are indicated with an alcohol or strong statement but do NOT state that those are printed in the lid, does that mean those statements are printed on the can body? (217-03 4%, 217-03 strong, 217-05 3.2%, 217-05 4%)
2) I have blue Pabst Milwaukee variations with silver and white trim. On the white-trimmed can, “Directions for Opening” is printed in blue. See photos.
3) Although not quarts (they’re two quarts), would you consider these 1930s oddballs cone tops? Or aluminum bottles? See photos.

Re: Qt Discussion Thread
Tim - to respond to your questions:
1.All of the alcohol variations and the cents off variations on the Pabst quarts are printed on the top of the can. There are no variations of that sort in the text on the can itself. Same is true for Pabst quarts from all three breweries that produced them. [Anyone ever seen a Peoria Pabst quart???]
2. There are some trim variations on the blue Pabst quarts. None are documented in the composite. I would appreciate any information on these blue quarts from the Milwaukee, Newark, and Los Angeles breweries.
3. As far as the big Pabst jugs go, they could be considered the first "aluminum bottle."

Re: Qt Discussion Thread
Thanks, Charlie. I don’t have any additional information about this Pabst quart with white/silver trim. I’m a Wisconsin collector, so I’m not familiar with those from other cities, and this is the only one I have not accounted for in the composite.
