I can't find much on this can and i'm not a can guy. Does it have much value in this condition. I think it's a little on the rare side but not for sure. Thanks, Owen

Thanks Keith,
I thought maybe 30 or 40 dollars..... maybe a little more because of rarity.

Ed,
It's the first one that i have seen too!

Thanks.........

Owen--A little work and I think that can would clean up pretty well! Don't downgrade it too much!
