Want to say Happy 4th to my CCA friends and share a couple match-covers from old time Nevada. The stock ACME beer covers are colorful, very artistically done, and really fantastic IMHO!!! Here's a great link to the history of ACME beer, the page features a bunch of neat collectibles, https://www.brewerygems.com/acme.htm

As far as the covers:

-Club 93 in Caliente operated from 1948 through 1953. I have yet to see a picture of the place and like many there's no street address so it can make research difficult.

-The Mission Bar cover although it is "bobtailed" meaning the striker has been removed by the collector because, well I don't know why, ease of storage in a album? This is cover is scarce at best considering it was only in operation during the years of 1938-1939. Pam has a few images of this place that I hope she can share again.

I am damn proud to be an American!!!
