    I assume the label is applied upside down and the pull tab is on the other side. Cans are two pieces with the bottom and walls being one piece. Still cool.

      This is definitely the top of the can. The bottom doesn’t have the same taper. There’s also no way that thin flange around the rim is one shaped piece of metal. That’s definitely the seam between the top of the can and the lid.

      What I’m not gonna say is whether the photo is real or altered. I want to assume in good faith that it’s real. It’s not entirely far-fetched that an un-punched lid blank was crimped onto a can.

        That can is on a steel table, so its either taken at the factory after it was pulled from the line or (less likely) at the distributor and found on a flat as it was being loaded. That table is scratched up and seem some wear and tear so my bet is the factory.

        It looks legit but out of context.
