Brewer/Business Name: West End Brewing Co., Utica, New York
Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown
Date of manufacture: circa 1950s
Contents/Type: n/a
Dimensions: 6 w x 10 h x 5-1/2 d.
Comments/description: Figural chalk features a beaming bow-tied gent with a frothy mug of Utica Club pointing at himself with his thumb while the base text reads U. C. FOR ME. His body is formed by the stacked letters U and C. Condition is very good to excellent, with just one slight paint chip off the hand and no other cracks, breaks or fissures in the casting, though there is a burst bubble at the bottom of one ear. The red of the UC letters is unusual in that it appears to be either incomplete from the factory or faded and only partially repainted so it appears streaky. The flesh tones are lighter and there is a lack of red in the eyebrows and hair, which are quite a bit darker on intact pieces. Same with the writing on the mug. Base has some stains and light wear. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
