Remarks: "ACME Beer. Circa: Early - Mid 1936. This Pacific Can Company, 12 ounce container, lists no patent information and was filled for Cereal Products Refining Corporation of San Francisco, California; Distributed by California Brewing Association of San Francisco and ACME Brewing Company of Los Angeles. This is the same package design as seen on the previous page (USBC-OI 9) with, however; the opening line of text, near the middle of the far left side panel, which in part reads "ACME Beer comes to you in Keglet,...". The word "Only" is removed and this rewritten sentence will appear on all follow-on package designs. Note also, these containers were sealed with the newly designed, non-beaded, lids; specifically designed for the beer can {refer to (Figure 33) on page XIII}. (USBC-OI 13). This Grade 1-example is the best of only seven examples known to the author, and a quality, Grade 1 example may not exist. Rarity Rating: R-8." Reprinted with permission from Kevin C. Lilek.
