Abstract

An end for a can, such as a can containing a beverage or other consumer product, includes a tab with a tab surface containing a promotional image formed therein. The promotional image may be a logo or other symbol. The promotional image is formed as a combination of a void stamped in the tab surface and laser etching of the tab surface, such as by burning off a colored finish applied to the tab surface in a predetermined pattern. The combination of the void and the laser etching results in a distinctive container end. The end may also include a colored panel which cooperates with the colored tab stock to result in a distinctive appearance to the container end.
