Condition: There are some traces of humidity around open nicks and scratches and a little under-the-paint humidity on the left left side of the can, and there is a bit of surface oxidation staining (likely removable) near the red ribbon. The humidity is difficult to detect when displayed. Note the bit of loss in the red at the bottom rim from moisture. 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.
