lets bump this thread up to the present. maybe some of you can show your new, or old, acquisitions of easy's. i'll start with a few schatts and 2 queens.
the lower opened easy is a vintage schatt from new york, and the other vintage is an early queen co. with another more recent queen above it.

I don't know Chet, with all you just posted and the Shock & Awe of easy-open you posted on the last page, I am starting to think that the only way the rest of us get an EO is if they manage to slip by you! :lol: :lol:


Maybe we will all find more in this new year! ::tu::

You inspired me to drag out my EZ-Opens and post a picture. I have a nagging feeling there's one more but can't remember. ::shrug:: Oh well. It's not important.

Yep TJ, Van is putting on a great show - thanks Van - really enjoying admiring your collection! OH
