BUTTE SPECIAL BEER high profile cone top (USBC 156-8), BUTTE BREWING CO. - BUTTE, MONTANA. Can is from 1950s and is not the extremely rare low profile predecessor. This can has signs of rust/removal damage, but is solid and will show well with vibrant red set against metallic gold. Please see photos for details on can condition and identification. . As an aside, Butte holds a special place in our hearts as it is where my husband and I met while attending the Montana School of Mines. I am the daughter of hard rock miner who worked underground in the Butte mines while he was the son of a smelterman from Anaconda. In honor of the two of us, an Anaconda Rocky Mountain cone top and a Butte Special cone top are being placed up for auction at the same time, and represent the first 12oz high-profile cone tops being sold from the trading portion of Danny's collection. We visited Butte last year and took pictures of the Butte Special Beer advertisement painted on the side of a brick building. We've included the photo for those who may be interested.
