Old Coke Can

A tin Coke can. I briefly looked online to try and date it, but the results are still out. I do not believe this to be a part of the tragedy

This is the 2nd version of the 1966 pull-tab tin can design. By 1967, Coke switched to Aluminum cans. For confirmation, see the website:

1967-74 would cover its age.

Seems to have had a pull tab, and aluminum top, and that dates it to fairly recently. Before cans, there were bottles. While I'm here, great coverage of a unique topic. Thanks for doing it. Real detective story.
