Coca-Cola Summer Cans

The Coca-Cola summer cans with phrases on them started showing up at work last week.


My first two are "Friend" and "Sis".  

I'm not sure how many there are, but I'll keep my eyes open and grab any I don't already have.

Mountain Dew

I've been collecting cans with the new Mountain Dew logo recently, but there was one I still didn't have...


Just the regular, plain old Mountain Dew.

And now I have it.

Another Rescue

Lately I've been collecting Mountain Dew cans with their new logo.  Last week in the top of a trash can at work I saw the new logo on a Diet Mountain Dew can, which I didn't have yet.  But the problem was whoever drank it was a "squeezer", one who feels the need to squeeze the can before throwing it away.

But many years ago I did post about a tool I have that can pop the cans back into shape from the inside.  I haven't used the tool for a while, but I got it out and was able to get this can back into decent shape.

It's not perfect, there are still a couple small dents and creases, but until I find a can in better shape for my collection this one will definitely dew, I mean definitely do.

Yes, I thoroughly cleaned the can before touching it with my hands.  There is some etiquette to can collecting.

Happy 6th of July!!!

Ok, so this is a couple days late.

A couple weeks ago someone texted a pic of this can to me and asked if I had it.  Nope!  So they bought it, drank it, and gave it to me.

It's a 16oz Cherry-flavored Coca-Cola can.  But what makes the design so neat is the American flag they were able to represent on the shapes of Coca-Cola bottles.  There's the blue/white star field in the upper left and the white/red stripes on the rest of the bottles.

This was a good can to release during the 4th of July season.  What's next for big red?
