Old Vb Can - How Old?

[warrenlw63]

According to the book "The Amber Nectar" CUB started canning their beer back in 1957. So your can could be pushing 50 years old.

The building is around 80 years old, so I think the floor has been replaced in that time. Didn't end up finding anything else under the floor, just this can, an old fosters bottle and a lemonade bottle.

This is one of the first beer cans in Australia. CUB released VB & Fosters in cans in the late 1950's.
This is the first CUB beer can patern 'The Ribbon' it is a three piece steel can with a flat top.
They don't look to bad but are not very valuble.
