Re: Soft Cross 12oz Miller Pull Tab - Bottom Opening

Found mine at an estate sale of 92 year old maintenance mechanic for Miller on Okauchee Lake ten years ago. Workshop was an old boathouse that was packed to the rafters. One shelf had about thirty Lite Halloween cans and when I dove into the back of the shelf, there it was. I was in a bit of a hurry...

Re: Leinie’s Red aluminum pilot + others

I have not had a chance at this particular Clipper but had heard they used a ships image from a nearby bank sign and had to remove it from their label? That story was not confirmed by the Art Director from 1979 to 2014 at Miller, he had the cans. Ziphippie
