ZoomDetails

BIG ROCK WHISKEY CARDBOARD SIGN, BONNIE & CO., LOUISVILLE, KY. Ca. 1900

WhiskeyBy Randy HuetschAugust 21, 2021

Here’s a great lithographic cardboard sign advertising “Fishing for Business” from the Bonnie and Company distillers in Louisville, Kentucky, just prior to prohibition starting in 1919. The graphics are interesting with a woman fishing and apparently getting her line caught on her dress, while a curious looking man is staring at her. I am not…

Dr. Pepper King of Beverages Tin Sign, Circa 1910

THE ORIGINAL LION KING SOLD DR. PEPPER!

SodaBy Randy HuetschAugust 21, 2021

The lion is often regarded as the King of the jungle, and in this case, the King of Beverages, helping sell Dr. Pepper as the King of all soda pop soft drinks! What better connotation of positioning a product as the top choice, i.e. the King product? In this case, this tin sign has Dr.…

CABINET BOTTLED BEER LITHOGRAPH, UNITED STATES BREWING CO. CHICAGO, IL. Ca. 1905

BrewerianaBy Randy HuetschAugust 11, 2021

Featured is a beautiful lithograph print from the United States Brewing Company which was in Chicago, Illinois during the early 1900’s prior to the start of prohibition. This particular scene shows the earliest leaders of the U.S. including President George Washington enjoying Cabinet beer, a brand brewed by many brewers in the early 1900’s. Cabinet…

Heim's Brewery Health Beer Lithograph, E. St. Louis, IL. Circa 1905

HEIM’S BREWERY HEALTH BEER CLAIM? IS THIS POSSIBLE?

BrewerianaBy Randy HuetschAugust 11, 2021

The Heim Brewery based in East Saint Louis, Illinois produced this ad for “Health Beers” back in the pre-prohibition era. Heim’s Select, Lager, and Export are the brand styles of beer on the labels. This is a lithographic poster from the 1910 era. But claiming their products were “Health Beers” is rather interesting. I have…

Bartholomay Brewing Calendar 1894 Rochester, NY

BARTHOLOMAY BREWERY CALENDARS WERE WELL AHEAD OF THEIR TIME!

BrewerianaBy Randy HuetschJuly 25, 2021

The Rochester New York based Bartholomay Brewing Company produced a rather risque series of advertising calendars in the late 1800’s which featured drawings of nude woman in them. This particular 1894 dated calendar image features the companies trademark round wheels with wings on it, a rather unique symbol which would not be confused with other…

A. Hussey Tobacco Leaf Co. Chicago, IL. Circa 1910

A. HUSSEY LEAF COMPANY LITHOGRAPH, CHICAGO, IL. Ca. 1910

TobaccianaBy Randy HuetschJuly 11, 2021

The A. Hussey Leaf Company was a huge seller of tobacco related smoking mixtures used primarily for pipe smokers, cigarette rollers, and cigar manufacturing companies.

Brinkmann, Reisel & Recker B.M.R. Tobacco Tin, St. Louis, MO

TobacciannaBy Randy HuetschJuly 11, 2021

Here is a neat old tobacco tin from a long defunct tobacco cigar manufacturing company which was based in Saint Louis, Missouri in the early 1900’s. Due to the long length of names from the three owners, the brand was simply shortened to B.M.R. Obviously it was easier to ask for an abbreviated name cigar,…

Bemis Brother & Co. Bag Makers Tin Sign, St. Louis, MO. Circa 1895

BEMIS BROTHER & CO. ONCE RULED THE SACK BUSINESS!

Antique Advertising CollectiblesBy Randy HuetschJuly 11, 2021

The Bemis Brother Company was the largest producer of cotton bags at one time in the United States. This company was originally started in St. Louis in 1858 and would have been a leader simply due to the amount of traffic that went up the river with boat traffic or out via the railroad lines…

EICHLER’S REAL GERMAN BEERS SERVING TRAY, N.Y.C., NEW YORK. Ca. 1905

BrewerianaBy Randy HuetschJuly 8, 2021

The John Eichler Brewing Company which was based in the Pre-Prohibition days in New York City was proud of their Pilsner German style beers. In fact, they were so proud that much of the Eichler Brewery advertising uses the reference to their German style beer products. This particular tray features an older gentleman almost toasting…
