New Orleans Can Company
New Orleans, Louisiana. Metal lithography for coffee, tea, and spice tins, buckets, pails, and signs. The 26 August 1923 San Antonio Light cooperative ad pairs New Orleans Can’s art with Hoffmann-Hayman packs under the headline “Packed in Tin to Keep the Original Flavor In.” Distinct from American Can Company (also in the H&H supplier roster).
