Any of this aluminum worth saving?

#1

Post by iggyks »

I recently bought a small collection and kept a few things, planning to post the slag locally as mancave decor and trash/recycle quite a bit of it if no takers. I photographed the aluminum cans i was unfamiliar with just in case there was an oddball or two in here. The Mich Light is actually steel. Some have condition issues as they were boxed with some cans laying on their sides, not upright. Thanks!

Value, no. Scarcity - the white Jax and Aluminum Star were scarce at one time. Some of "Wake up" and "Now is the time" cans weren't easy to track down when I was chasing them.

The misprinted Hamm's Light might be worth putting up on eBay, maybe also the World's Fair cans. I agree with the other posts, but unfortunately it's the sort of stuff that may or may not sell.

There may be some interest in the Michelob golf can.

Thanks everybody! I may try a few of them. There was a Pearl SS tab in there that more than covered what I paid and I pulled 10 or 12 common but fun cans for myself plus a white Stite flat so I'm happy. Just didn't want to smush something rare.
