I am a collector of beer cans of sorts. I have been collecting English
pub beer (pint) cans for a while. I make some into lamps. (Yeah, well, I'm weird. But they look cool to me: http://gajennings.net/lamps/) But I live in southeastern Massachusetts. And it is rare to find a place that sells good beer in cans beyond the several that I already have. The English pub beer cans are ART as far as I am concerned, as Boddingtons, Tetley's and Caffrey's so elegantly show. So I'm thinking, perhaps people could offer to me information about places to get more of these really excellent looking pub beer cans. Maybe people trade in beer cans? I am willing to consider buying cans. However, they are delicate and not easily shipped (unless full ;-). P.S. If I am posting in the wrong place feel free to flame me at my yahoo account. P.P.S. The r.f.d.b. FAQ Subject: 5-4. Can I get beer in the mail? has a broken link by the way. P.P.P.S. If you happen to see my Pub Beer Can lamps and are interested, I will not make any out of any beer any where near the likes of budwiser et al. |

While the above beers' containers are very nicely laid out (in my opinion, and I assume his as well). \\paul > "c5" > wrote in message > oups.com... > >>I am a collector of beer cans of sorts.
