Remarks: "Ballantine's Light Export Beer. Late 1935. This American Can Company, 12 ounce container, lists Patent Pending and was Packed at the Brewery by P. Ballantine and Sons of Newark, New Jersey. Notice the lack of text on the left side panel, which remains empty on all follow-on package designs. Note also, the trademark "Keglined", with "Registered Trade Mark American Can Company", in two lines below, printed near the bottom of the right side panel. This Grade 1- example is the best of only five examples known to the author, and a quality, Grade 1 example may not exist. Rarity Rating: R-9." Reprinted with permission from Kevin C. Lilek.
