Very cool! I’m down with all of them except the 2nd one from the bottom. It’s the one on the Palmetto brewing bottle. What is that??

Rand,
Great stuff!

You have a knack for finding non-can Breweriana to possibly collect.

I should've let you write my "What To Collect" article.

I like them all. They would make a very cool side collection.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

You would be surprised at just how deep and wide the beercan't front is! Just topped 58 radio variations....72 golf ball cans.... 34 telephones... 39 lighters.... etc.... and I've barely scratched the surface of the international beercant market. Guinness, Labatts, Molson, Asahi etc etc etc have produced a bunch of marketing kitch that's just harder to stumble across here in the colonies. Nope....gunna stay focused on the exciting and new world of Beer Can'ts that all the kids are talking about!
