Brewer/Business Name: Cremo Brewing Co., New Britain, Connecticut
Manufacturer/Plant: Universal Tray and Sign Co., New York, NY
Date of manufacture: circa 1930s
Contents/Type: N/A
Dimensions: 12 inches.
Comments/description: Unusually strong color on this example. It is so often found with washed-out, splotchy blue - a common affliction of the inks used by Universal. The blue on this one is outstanding although it is marred by severe crazing - another common Universal trait. There are no other notable flaws. Clear coating not only enhances colors but stabilizes crazing. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
