For the Collector!
I had a display like this back in college but with 40oz malt liquor bottles, I called it the “Wall of Shame”

10-year-olds collecting beer cans is very '70s and great prep for college.
I also had a display like this in college, but it was 90% Mountain Dew cans.
Sigh, the '70s…
Don't know where my parents found the ones they gave me, but they were brown plastic and had black elastic strings that stretched across maybe 6 cans. The elastics wore out after very little time and all the cans drooped forward.
Jesus, what a decade. We were either hurling lawn darts at each other's heads or collecting our drunken uncle's beer cans…
My best friend had a wall of these! Mostly beer cans, but a lot of RC baseball cans, as well. I seem to remember a beer called Old Frothingslosh that had "racy" pictures of heavyset women in their bloomers on them. I often wonder if he ever kept his collection and, if not, whatever became of it.
Real collectors would never damage their valuable cans with self-adhesive panels. 😀
Before Gamera sighs too loudly at "the 70s", people still collect this kind of thing and like most 21st century collecting they get serious about it.
Y'all need to see this….

LOL, energy drink collection. Next up, 5-Hour Energy bottle collections, then Emergen-C collections.
