Maltosia Beer Factory Scene Tip Tray

Brewery:  German American Brewing Co., Buffalo, NY
Manufacturer:  Kaufmann & Strauss Co.
Date of manufacture:  Pre-Prohibition
Dimensions:  5”
Comments:  This unique design features three-color lithography: white, gold, and brown; quite unusual and interesting. The tray is larger than most at five inches. As with other large examples, that’s likely due to the level of detail found in the design, a busy brewery with angelic figure superimposed. At the very bottom of the tray, not visible in this photo, the manufacturer’s mark is barely discernable. As for condition, there are a few areas of wear on the face where the white underpainting shows through, most notably on the angel and just above the Maltosia logo. The two white areas on the rim at 7 and 4 o’clock are light reflections. This is an exceptionally rare tip tray in very nice condition.
