Yes, I know - throwback soda cans == throwback website. The links to the soda cans are near the bottom of the page.

And at the top, apparently. OK, I'll shut up now.

Don't miss the Beer Can Museum, too. [tripod site, may not survive]

Thanks for the post. I love web sites like that one fanatically devoted to some subject.

So, how many store-brand and private label soft drinks do you think there have been over the years. Would you have guessed, this many?

The danger to the Beer Can Museum from the weakened dam in Taunton, Massachusetts last week has passed. This is definitely a cool collection. Too bad there don't seem to be any hours where the collection is open to the public. Maybe they can find a place for it some day at the local Haffenreffer Museum in Bristol, Rhode Island, (donated by the Haffenreffers of brewing fame.

The wooden dam in Taunton was replaced by a stone one yesterday. See Unstable Dam in Taunton Replaced

In 1976, 7-Up produced a series of 50 cans, one for each of the U.S. states. Each had a unique design on the back, and when the cans were stacked a certain way, they formed an image of Uncle Sam. I managed to get all 50 (it wasn't too hard) and kept them for about 10 years, but they were just taking up too much space and I eventually threw them out (this was long before ebay).

I like this one a lot for some reason. But nothing compares to the, now defunct, Louisiana brand: Dr. Smooth's Secret Recipe Soda. I can't find a picture to save my life, but it is a wonderful thing. on preview: neuron! What were you thinking?!

It wasn't a can but a bottle I picked up in rural Kentucky called "Big Stick" soda, with an enameled picture of a hand holding a club. I guess it had something to do with "carrying a big stick."
