Gettelman Beer Flat Top MISPRINTED BROWN 69-5 - Brewer/Business Name: Gettelman Brewing Corp., Milwaukee, Wisconsin Manufacturer/Plant: Continental Can Co. Date of manufacture: circa 1960s USBC reference: 69-5 Contents/Type: 12 oz Dimensions: 2-3/4 w x 5 h. Comments/description: Very cool look to this can resulting from a misprint in the brown ink that leaves the normally solid-brown background appearing marbled. Clearly a misprint as the effect persists in the fine text of MILWAUKEE BEER below the main field. And it differs on both sides, whereas on an intentional design, the pattern/texture would be identical on both faces. The can is minty and has a new top added or replaced. About 1/3 of a rim shorter than standard. A great conversation piece. 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.
