Welded Seam Budweiser Can

It's been awhile since we've posted, so just for the heck of it...today we look at a welded beer can seam on a classic Budweiser can. Various types of seams can be found on older steel beer cans; soldered cans with notches, straight soldered seams with no notches, and soldered seams with 'crimps', like in today's example. This is probably one of the most recognizable beer cans on the planet!

This can lives in the 'Beer Can Zoo' in our museum. Always a fan favorite!

Beer Can Folk Art

This classic piece of folk art came from an E-Bay seller in Georgia. I couldn't resist, for obvious reasons. If you're ever visiting the beer can museum, be sure to ask for a private viewing. You see, this sculpture has a bizarre secret. That's all I'm going to say about it.
Enjoy your long Columbus Day weekend!
