Questions & Comments

No worries. I just got hold of an old Prince Albert tobacco can and IT is RUSTY, lol. Yours can't be all that bad judging from the picture. :-)

It's actually pretty clean. I remember those old cigar boxes that were yellow. Ahh memories.

Jul 26th, 2016 at 7:27:05 PM PDT by

Yeah, that's why I was wondering if it was actually old, it's in REALLY nice condition. Plus it's REALLY unique, I've never seen one like it before. And I've been looking at old cans for a couple of years now. :-) Guess I'm just gonna have to try for this one. Thank you for offering it!

Oh absolutely. I was looking for the Doral container & I found ONLY 2. I don't think it's that vintage cause if is then im ancient :-D

Haha! Well I AM ancient! We used to call random people on a ROTARY phone and ask them if they had Prince Albert in a can, or if their refrigerator was running, lmao! Ahhh, the good ole days before caller i.d., LOL! Oh, just in case you ever come across any, I collect Fossil cans especially. They don't have to be old but of course those are my favorite ones. :-) Nice talking to you, hun!

Nice talking to you too. I will be watching for those :-)

This is dated for 1996 google it I also used to work at a gas station convenience store I had acquired two of these at the time considered somewhat vintage now though still nice auction. :)

Watching. This is pretty shiny inside, are you sure this is old?

Jul 26th, 2016 at 1:30:23 PM PDT by

Yes its kinda rusty inside I will have to take more better pics & add the information about the container.

Jul 26th, 2016 at 7:13:32 PM PDT by

I don't see any rust inside.
