Found this full can in my Dad's garage. Anybody guess what year?

1970

1971?... give it a try.

1976

I have a few of those - its the bicentennial can - 1976

1980. America's Cup Newport.

Don't know anything about the can, but interesting ads from the past!

Looks like Fishbones is the winner....

Buzz, I think those are newer ads. They look similar to signs I've seen in the local packies. They're trying to go with the old style pinup girl thing instead of the chicks in bikinis.

Not so quick there......:biglaugh: I actually didn't know the exact date but the owner of Gansett sent me an email saying it's from the late 70's. My can doesn't say 1980 on it like the one in your link. I should have made this a contest but i don't know the actual date and neither does Gansett. Go figure.

Whatever vintage they look good.

Lets go w/ 1977 then...
