Budweiser Princeton 1944 New Jersey Tiger (sticker) Reunion Can

1944 Princeton Reunion Budweiser Can

This 16-ounce Budweiser beer can commemorates the Princeton University Class of 1944 reunion. A distinctive feature is a New Jersey license plate-shaped sticker depicting a tiger, the Princeton mascot. The can was produced by Anheuser-Busch, a testament to the long-standing tradition of breweries creating commemorative cans for Princeton reunions, a tradition dating back to at least the 1930s. These cans, initially made of tin, have become sought-after collector's items, reflecting a piece of Princeton's history and the evolving styles of collegiate memorabilia. Variations exist, with some cans featuring the tiger sticker and others lacking it. This particular version reflects a specific design choice from that era.
