I just discovered a minor variation on the Paradise Beverage Cone Tops. Notice on the back panel that one has the contents and the other does not. That is the only difference on the two cans. The can on the right I picked up at canvention this year, and the can on the left was just dumped in the northwest this fall. Was this variation already known to the soda correctors?

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
Wish I still had mine to compare but I sold it. And no side pic. I do got a side pic of my flat that sez 12 ounces on side. Wonder if the flat comes both ways like the cone? LEON.

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
I'm fairly certain that the cone top variation hasn't been identified before. Nice find!

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
Conehead, I'm pretty sure I'm the one who dumped your latest Paradise Club cone. I have both variations on my shelf and have for quite a while. Not sure where it would be documented or not though.
The Paradise Club flats are super tough! One Rainier Chapter member has a minty one that I would love to get in to my collection someday.

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
Thanks for the info Carl. I'm still new to the soda cones, and have a lot to learn.
Merry Christmas Everyone,

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
Awesome variation - I was unaware of that one. I will add it to the guide.
Thanks,

Re: Paradise Beverage Cone Top Variation
To access the online soda can guides, go to:
http://www.collectiblesodacans.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Paradise Club variations will be added soon!
Cones are in the front of the guides, followed by Prezip & Zip code cans and then the gallons and lastly the known fakes. There is also an international guide.
Both guides are available to view as an online book and as a higher resolution pdf for folks who want to put them on a device. I have both guides on my iPhone (I use iBook to view them).
Happy Holidays,
Dave T
