REVERE TAPSTER BOTTLE CAN PICTURE VINTAGE1930S ART DECO STYLE ROME NY:
$20.50

Revere Tapster beer pitcher. Made in Rome, NY. This unusual metal object, shaped like a small pitcher with a lid, becomes even more curious when the lid is raised and a sharp can opener is revealed in the lid’s underside. Called the “Tapster,” this device was made by Revere Copper and Brass, Inc., in Rome, New York, probably around 1934, after the repeal of Prohibition. Although it was never used extensively, the Tapster did offer consumers a somewhat refined way of serving canned beer: a can of beer is placed inside the device and, when the lid is closed, the opener pierces the can. The beer can then be poured out of the spout. Please look at the pictures as they are part of the description. We are downsizing. From smoke free home. Thanks for looking.
