Those are nice. I see a few Milkays with a city but most have just the St louis Back. The NuGrape you have is the 2nd style of the acl. The larger one is a little later. bob

ORIGINAL: digger mcdirt

Here's a nice big 50's -early 60's era tin with the panel truck on the side. It's a early one no zip code on it. I see a lot of the later ones with zip from the 60's-early 70's era but not many of the older ones. Also a nice hot pink unopened pull tab Tab . BOB

THE VEHICLE ON THE LARGE TIN LOOKS 1930S-40S. COULD IT BE THAT OLD? ANY WAY I LOVE THINGS LIKE THAT! GREAT FINDS! JAMIE

I believe they used the same design from the 40's-all the way through the 70's. I can date them before the early 60's by no zip code on the cities. But as far as exact date I can't. I see several of the newer 60's-70's with the zips on them and they still had the same truck. I bought it just because I knew it had to be a least late 50's and back. BOB
