Wow! How long ago were you tracking this across the border...Labatt's
bought it back in the 70's I think.
My father spent years working at a gravure printer in Toronto that
handled Labatt's and Molson's beer labels. Plenty of vintage and rare
beer labels in stacks or uncut sheets in the basement at home.
