Reference: USBC 78-18, USBCOI 371
Brewery: Gunther Brewing Co., Baltimore, Maryland
Manufacturer/Plant: American Can Co.
Date of manufacture: circa 1930s
Canning Code: n/a
Contents/Type: 12 oz
Condition/Comments: Ultra rare can! At the time it was published the can shown in USBCOI was the only known example of this very early (mid-1935) variation with no quotation marks around CANCO. Thus, it was assigned an R10 rarity rating. Here is another! Condition is not as good as the book specimen but it does hold its own in terms of shelf presence and visual appeal. The colors are still strong and the boldness of the design is unmistakable. Blemishes are clearly shown, and there are 6-7 small canning dings at the top rim that may not be evident in the photos. The top is off but there are NO gear marks visible. A great opportunity! Dark vertical line at center of some can photos is reflection. All items are original unless otherwise noted.
