Tennant beer can lager ladies

From 1962 to early 90s there were different generations of these cans with various ladies on them. In 1975 on Shell tanker Mangelia I seem to remember Susan, Linda and about four others in a case. The men would often ask whoever was by the fridge behind bar for a specific one, eg " I'll have a Linda" I didn't really see much of them on ships after that but apparently they were still going till 1992 in different forms. I thought perhaps it night have beaten stopped as sex disc act came in end of 75 but it appears they were still going until early nineties.

I was told there was a wall built of them in a bar at a hotel out in P Gulf.

Here are two out the labels from list of them that can be googled.
