Comments/description: Items include a Rainier Beer serving tray and a Malt Nutrine Vienna-style tin art plate (there is no manufacturer mark). The former has a copyright date of 1905 and depicts a womans portrait. The latter also shows a young woman, but in full figure, perched atop a shelf that once read PURE FOOD. Note that all of the ad references have either been scratched out or were painted over with floral tole imagery and have since been mostly removed. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Both pieces are clean with minor blemishes - other than the defacing mentioned on the Rainier tray.
