Can't seem to find this one pictured anywhere.

Thanks!

WWII era crown (they had less metal waste as the punch holes for the crowns could be closer together to get more crowns out of a sheet of metal during the war years). It also came with red color text for Blatz. While uncommon, I do run across both styles occasionally (but I'm in Wisconsin)... I don't recall what I paid for mine back a couple of years ago, but it was not a lot.

Pabst and Anheuser Busch also did the same shotgun repeated design on some of their crowns during that era too.
