Van Dyke Export Beer 12 Oz Zip Top Can

Van Dyke Export Beer Can: A Collector's Item

This vintage 12-ounce beer can showcases the Van Dyke Export Beer from the Van Dyke Brewing Company in St. Charles, Missouri. The can features a zip-top opening, a style popular in the mid-20th century. The distinctive blue label, a common feature on these cans, adds to its appeal for collectors. While the exact production dates aren't definitively known, similar cans from this era are highly sought after due to their age and connection to a now-defunct brewery. The 'Brewed the Old World Way' tagline on the can suggests a traditional brewing approach that adds to its historical significance. Variations in label colors or minor details may exist amongst these cans. The can's bottom-opening design and Crown Cork & Seal Co. production contribute further to understanding its place in beer can history.
