Private Collection: 1930's to 1940's Hamms Beer Can

Hamms Brewing Company was started in 1865, survived prohibition, and was first sold in 1968. Today MillerCoors produces Hamms beer. This can is from sometime between 1936 and 1941 during which time three patents were filed. This style of can was used up to the 1960's when the first pull tab style can was invented. This can is in a private collection in NW Iowa.
