Wow! Here is a beautiful self-framed tin sign from the Jung Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, circa 1900. I love this image but how the woman in a nightgown sitting on the edge of a bed serving you right relates to the beer being advertised is interesting in itself. What I do know is the image…
I have always loved the colors and the incredible image used by The American Brewing Company out of Saint Louis, Missouri in the early 1900’s. As shown here, the company chose to use a beautiful illustration of a woman overseeing her temple like garden and looking down at the river commerce for their metal advertising…
I love the graphics on this rare 1898 lithographic calendar from the Adam Scheidt Brewery which was based in Norristown, PA at one time. If you look closely, the flowing robed woman has a stein of beer in her hand and appears to be on her way to bring the product to someone. This litho…

Here is a great lithograph from the United States Brewing Company out of Chicago, Illinois featuring President George Washington and his staff enjoying some Cabinet Export Bottled Beer. This particular lithograph claims that this was the “First in the Country”, which I don’t know what that claim exactly means today? Cabinet beer was a brand…
Featured is an incredible oval serving tray from the National Brewing Company which had been based in Syracuse, N.Y. prior to prohibition. This oval metal tray advertises their India Pale Ale and another Ale, however the brewery was also known and very proud in their advertising for their Brilliant Ale brand. I would suspect a…
This incredible self framed tin sign put out by the Indianapolis Brewing Company in 1904 was a result of their flagship brand of beer, Duesseldorfer taking home the top award at the Saint Louis MO 1904 Worlds Fair Exposition. Brilliantly designed with their mythological like boy, and the image of the Grand Basin at the…
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…
