Dixie 45 Beer Cone Top 159-18 - Brewer/Business Name: Dixie Brewing Company Inc., New Orleans, Louisiana Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co. Date of manufacture: circa 1940s USBC reference: 159-18 Contents/Type: 12 oz Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h. Comments/description: Tough cone, especially in high grade due to its mostly metallic label. This is a highly respectable indoor example that offers an attractive display with only minimal spotting. While there is considerable tarnish in the metallic, the color remains strong and, because it is so uniform, it is less distracting than uneven or isolated tarnish would be. The spout has been replaced, with gear marks evident on the reverse but much less noticeable on the display face. Spout is hand-painted gold. Strong display. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email . Condition: Cans may have minor canning dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Larger dings that do not show will be noted in the item description. A thin black vertical reflection may show on some can photos.
