@stringsx24now
I like your suggestion! Obviously my collecting niche is variety but here are my favorite Michigan cans (actually, the only ones I've got). Click to enlarge.

Re: Favorites from Michigan
This is the first one that came to my mind but I have others I like too. Maybe I will post them later.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.

Okay, here's another. I cannot post the Big Mac can without also posting the Pfeiffer ore boat can. Photo is courtesy of Randy's site:

Re: Favorites from Michigan
Not sure I have any Indiana cans photographed, anything I still have would be just some common stuff. I do however have some of my former Michigan cans I posted Facebook back in July on the "Friday Favorites" thread. Other than a set of the Pfeiffer scene cans, these are the ones I liked the most and probably should have kept. Hell, could have bought a nice new car cash given today prices.

Re: Favorites from Michigan
My all time favorite dumping adventure is when I found the Alpine. The pic below are the other 3 Michigan favorite cans.

Re: Favorites from Michigan
My MI cans. Interesting that the National Sportsman has a Florida tax lid.
Always looking for West Virginia breweriana from Fesenmeier and Parkersburg.
12 oz. US flat tops.
Well I woke up this morning and got myself a beer,
The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

Re: Favorites from Michigan
Thanks Joe. Goebel Bock clean from Detroit is a tough can. As for the Guinness Beer, is that #44058? If yes, any chance I could get large pics of all four sides for my MBC web site?

Re: Favorites from Michigan
The old Gold was a timely acquisition.
No telling what an example would go for now.
I plan to donate all my cans to Henry Ford Museum.

Re: Favorites from Michigan
Here are 6 interesting Michigan cans. The National and Sportman cans are 2 mockup cans from the brewery . The red Altes was purchased at the first buy sell show I ever attended in the ten cent bin. It had never been soaked.
