Post by cantankerous »

Was there ever an article on and about the US Gallon cans in the BCCA Magazine?
I don't remember one....
Also anyone have pictures of ads and cardboard promoting them?

I did a quick search with Randy's BMV and found an article by Ken White that was in the August, 1978 issue of Beer Cans Monthly. There may be more but I just did a quick search.
Focus: Cones and flats from Michigan, South Bend, and Fort Wayne. Foreign cans only if I bought them myself in the country of origin.
