Billy started collecting beer cans and breweriana in 1971. Living in Southern Illinois, Billy was in the heart of the beer can craze that originated in the St. Louis area around that same time. Beer can clubs were popping up everywhere! One club in particular was BCCA (Beer Can Collectors of America). The collecting of beer cans became a passion of Billy's as well as many others in the early 70's. Over the years, Billy has bought, sold and collected thousands upon thousands of cans and breweriana. Located in Southern Illinois, just outside St. Louis, MO, Billy specializes in beer and soda cans from the pre-1970's and is always seeking cans for his extensive collection! Billy has bought and sold cans all over the US.
