Comments/description: This small full-color pamphlet invites visitors to Milwaukee and to tour the many Pabst facilities run by the sprawling brewer. During the 1893 Chicago Worlds Fair, Pabst constructed a massive, gold-leaf brewery pavilion. Following the fair, they dismantled it and shipped it to Milwaukee, where it was rebuilt as a conservatory attached to the Captain Frederick Pabst Mansion. This booklet no doubt was used to promote that attraction and several others highlighted in the text which appears in xerox on the back of the frame. (Not all the pages are represented). The color pages have been separated and appear as spreads on the front, each page highlighting one of the brands brews. Condition as shown. Each spread is about 6 w x 5 h. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
