I can add a bit to this list, all from the Holy Grail of dumps- the best dump I ever visited in my life (I wish I could say I found it, but it was local friends who discovered it). Three visits to this place yielded different and better things every time. Anyone getting down towards New Orleans that wants to visit this with me, let me know. It's been quite a while, but I'd love to go back there again. We worked it pretty well the last time we were there (a friend had an RV- we camped there for 2 nights- 3 solid days of dumping!).

This dump led to a lot of great cans
Flats
20 Grand (Red Top) 2 types
Spearman Ale
Straight 8
Jax- a huge fat load of black-and-reds!
Black Label
Falstaff
Regal
the usual national brands

Cones
Burger Ale (black and green can)
Red Top Ale (yellow can)
Goldcrest 51
Spearman Ale
Bon
20 Grand
Straight 8
Falstaff
several more I haven't cleaned up yet- there was a spot about maybe 40 feet square where the ground was literally covered in cones, but they were all very rusty :smt022

Quarts
Pabst (several kinds)

16 oz
Falstaff
Jax (several kinds)
Bud, Schlitz, Miller

I'm probably forgetting a few, because it's been a while since I was at this dump. Sadly, two of the buddies I went to this dump with have passed since then (one a best buddy from grade school, the other one of the truly best friends I made through this great hobby), and the third disappeared after Katrina, so I have nobody to corroborate my memory with here. Still, this brings back some great memories, and it gets me in the mood to get back into dumping if I can find someone to do it with.

While going through my flats of cans waiting for acid, I found a Sterling FT that had also come from the dump I was describing earlier, leaving another brand that needs to be added.

My latest adventures with oxalic acid have revealed Stag (black can from Griesedeck) and Blatz (copyright 1945 can) as two more brands to add to the list of Mississippi finds. Since this hasn't been added yet, let me further amend this list with Nick Thomas and Ebling crowntainers.
