Condition/Comments: This MAY be an unlisted color variation: it is much closer to white than the darker yellow-y cream can pictured in USBC from Illinois. It is closer to the white Fredericks can 179-10. However, the background color is (more likely) either slightly toned on the reverse or slightly faded on the front so it is difficult to say whether its actual color is whiter like the front, or creamier like the reverse. In either case, it is a superb can, clean as can be with an unbelievable shine and bright hardware. Beautiful. All items are original unless otherwise noted.
