A Coffee Can for You (2 of 63): Via Roma Espresso.

This is a unique can in my collection (though they're all unique!):



The coffee isn't Italian -- the label just makes it seem that way, I think this shit was actually packed in Chicago or New York -- but it has a picture of the Colosseum on it, which isn't modern design-y enough like the best Italian coffee cans are, like Guglielmo.

Also, the shade of green has that bright, eye-catching nature like the oranges and reds and yellows of Latino coffee cans, only it's not quite part of the warm palette. Very unusual, I would say.
