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

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.
