Brewer/Business Name: Bartels Brewing Co., Edwardsville, Pennsylvania
Manufacturer/Plant: Chas. Shonk
Date of manufacture: Pre-Prohibition
Contents/Type: n/a
Dimensions: 12 inches.
Comments/description: Very nice all-original example. Rare tray, especially in this earlier low-rim style. The design also comes in a straight-sided variant with notably different background coloration and on which the figure has been repositioned so the bottle appears perfectly upright relative to the position of the logos on the rim. This specimen has a terrific shine and smooth surface with virtually no crazing. A couple of glass rings are the more notable marks. Excellent condition. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
