Type Tab (Zip), 12-2, Wide Date 1964
Company American Can Company Code Keglined oval 56-A

Name Long A (12)
Details Gold "Fassbier", long "A". Similar to 57-36, but "Fassbier" gold, not red, longer "A" in the word Altes, and the red square containing the Altes logo is not outlined in gold as with later cans. Also, this can may have a unique feature in the red square contains horizontal gold bands which have a somewhat "holographic" effect when tilting the can toward a light source.

Only three nice indoor condition (third surfaced August, 2012) are confirmed known (none are Bible pictured can) plus one dumper. In June 2015 five flat sheets were discovered and professionally rolled/lidded (BCCA, 2015, Oct/Nov, page 25)
