Beer Can House in Houston, TX
I took this photo during a visit to see Uncle Bill in Houston TX. Three things stand out from that trip: The Beer Can House, The Orange Show and Smither’s Mosaic Park. All three are must-see-for-yourself-places.
Price includes shipping and 12 7/8” black square frame with white matt.

John Milkovisch, a retired upholsterer for the Southern Pacific Railroad, started his project now known as the Beer Can House by applying aluminum beer can siding to the exterior. Over 18 years the house disappeared under a cover of flattened beer cans for both practical and decorative reasons. Garlands made of cut beer cans hanging from the roof edges not only made the house sing in the wind, but also lowered the family's energy bills. Ripley's Believe It or Not estimated that over 50,000 cans adorn this monument to recycling.
