The seller describes it such:

“One of only 2 Known Indoor Examples; Perhaps Rarest Can. NEAR MINT and ALL ORIGINAL–a truly exciting, rare can in our hobby.

Found in a wall in Berkeley years ago along with one other just like it.

No other indoor examples are known to exist. Take a look at the one in the USBC book–that one is probably the third best example known to exist, and it’s a dumper.”

“The collecting habit is a happy addiction for some beer fans, writes Willie Simpson.

For someone who makes a living out of hunting down new beers and breweries, I’m still surprised by the varying degrees of obsession that the amber nectar inspires in others.

At least, he claims to have photographed, and had a beer inside, every pub in Victoria.”
