Can with emblem of married life: with chip and repair at rim (under 1/2 in. long), with light to moderate scratches to surface, especially blue matte painted surface, some small areas of chipped paint, some small areas with abrasions.

Can with toothpulling scene: light scratches to surfaces, a few small areas of loss to painted surface at painted scene, three horizontal hairline cracks to body, one hairline to underside, and some areas of concentrated craquelure, possibly from damage.
