They say that the first drink put in cans was a beer made in Richmond, Virginia, about 1935.
These tin cans were easy to transport for everyday use and in wartime.
At first people didn't like the metallic taste that came with drinking from these cans, but the interior lining becoming more perfect the acceptance became much better.
And the arrival of the pull-tab (1959) gave an additional push to the popularity.
Among those thirsty people we also may find some that collected cans for a while, but this hobby lost it's popularity.
May be, with my set of artistic cans I can encourage can lovers to start collecting again...

To have news value is to have a tin can tied to one's tail.
