Today’s #wcw comes to you courtesy of Illinois Bronze. This can is certainly special to us as it was part of a large hardware store dig that is clearly documented in our hardcover book: Two Decades Of Digging (p.117). The whole vibe felt right from the get-go even while parked curbside before entering past the plastic covered bay windows. Among many cans still on the shelf from the 60s era was this ‘Sea Green’, paper label, small top in immaculate condition. The original cardboard box was also found close by and all is now preserved in the Cap Matches Color collection. #illinoisbronze #1964 #hardwarestore #graffitihistory #cmc #stillontheshelf #vintagespraypaint #paperlabel #capmatchescolor #collectors #twodecadesofdigging #americana #painthistory #vintage
