Nice 1960's party can, sorry about the black and white picture it's the only one I have seen.

If you have any of the above cans, I would like to add them to my collection and will pay a reasonable price for them. Check back from time to time as the cans will change. Sorry about the quality of some of the above pictures, because I don't have the cans the pictures come from a variety of different sources. I realise that many of these cans are very rare, but HEY !!! - I'm allowed to dream.

I am also looking for any of the older Tennent's cans - those with flat tops (i.e. pre-ring pull with a punch top) and of course any Scottish Cone-Top cans.
