The glued seam is wide open, looks like a starved clam. It was the only one we found in that pile. There were some other interesting cans in the mix, a strong Hamms and a couple tough Bosch premium zips- Ziphippie Bjorn

Mr. Ziphippie ,
That was a lot of cans, sure was a blast digging through those.
It was the right time frame for single faced Strohs, to bad we didn't find any.
Hopefully I'll gets some time this weekend to clean the rest of my cans, you inspired me to clean a batch of tabs last night.
Some cool Tabs!..... most of these came from the Bud Dump.

here's a few pics

I think I need a Bosch Premium zip if anybody has a extra. I always wondered if they ever made a Stroh's 16 oz zip? LEON.

Cool pics, Rusty! I love that tough Northern tab- all the Bosch premiums I found were fantabs.

Think I might need the fan tab Bosch Premium, Not sure though as they are boxed up now. but here's a old pic of my Premium that has the small finger pull tab probably from around 1967. I got a cool story about that can. LEON.

another cool thing from the tab dump,..... of the seven early Budweiser Zip tops I brought home, there are three minor top variations,
The first Gen. zip; flat surface, no writing. the next one; flat surface, with "lift Tab-Pull >, the next one; flat surface, Lift Tab- Pull Open.
I didn't expect that.
The "Tab-Top" Zip cans I found are the formed top with smile beads. Do the Tab-Top cans come with the early Zips??
Same cans with top variation

Ziphippie,
I dug a lot of soda cans out of that dump, but only one tropic surf.

That was the can you were hoping to find there, it was a great moment when you dug those out. :smt023
looks like you got the nicest example.
Here's mine.
