Brass Glennon’s Beer Sign
Here is a Glennon’s Beer Brass Sign from the Jos. H. Glennon’s Brewing Company located in Pittston, PA. This pre-prohibition Glennon’s Beer Sign is from the early 1900’s era and is in very good condition for it’s age.
It is approximately 26″ wide by 14" high and is made of heavy brass with stamped lettering. Signs like these would have been displayed on the side of a tavern or saloon to advertise Glennon’s Beer to patrons. During the time, brass was the ideal metal of choice for outdoor advertising signs in that it would not weather or rust.
Briggs High Hop Ale Sign
Here is a Briggs High Hop Ale Sign from the T. Briggs & Company located in Elmira, NY. This pre-prohibition era Briggs High Hop Ale Sign is from between 1870 to 1920 era and is in excellent condition considering how old it is.
It is approximately 14″ by 6″ and is made of embossed metal with a chain hanger. The advertising on the sign probably suggests that their product was some kind of an India Pale Ale with a higher ABV (alcohol by volume) than tradition ales produced at the time.
Birkenstock Brewers Lunch Pail
Here is a Birkenstock Brewers Lunch Pail from the John Birkenstock, Sunrise & Sunset Brewing Company located in Allentown, PA. This pre-prohibition era Birkenstock Brewers Lunch Pail is from between 1890 and 1898 and is in excellent condition considering how old it is.
It is about the size of a standard lunch kettle and is made of tin with an embossed lid. The Embossing on the lid reads “Compliments of John Birkenstock Brewer & Bottler Allentown, PA”.
Lunch pails like this one were basically the working man’s lunch kettle from back in the day and would have also served as a beer growler to transport beer back home; click here to check out my blog article about the Evolution of the Beer Growler from what was once just a lunch pail for the working class.
Continental Scotch Ale Sign
Here is a Continental Scotch Ale Sign from the Continental Brewing Company located in Philadelphia, PA. This pre-prohibition era Continental Scotch Ale Sign is from the early 1900s era and is in excellent condition considering how old it is.
It is approximately 12″ by 16″ and is made of metal with lithography printed graphics. The graphics depict a patriot soldier at camp with a large labeled bottle of Continental Scotch Ale. Originally, this sign would have been displayed in a wooden frame. Signs like these would have been displayed inside of a tavern to advertising Continental Brewing Company products including beer, ale, and porter along with other styles too.
Update: This sign has recently been custom framed for display; updated images will be added to the page shortly.
