"Hinkel s Lager Beer" Tin Advertising Tray Albany, New York, Ca 1902 OUTSTANDING

$1,400List Price

About the Item

Crazy exceptional original condition----near mint! Bright crisp colors----no fading. This is a very "early" Pre-Prohibition round advertising beer tray (circa 1902) promoting "Hinkel's Lager Beer". The beer tray promotes "Hinkel's" as being "Pure Malt Beer" which is clearly stated in bold letters on the top circumference frame. The location of the company "Albany, N.Y." is clearly marked in capital letters in the bottom circumference framing. The entire tray base is decorated with multiple natural colors in, what is presumably, a typical mountain scene indigenous to the Adirondacks. A beautiful large elk dominates the foreground, while mountains, a lake, and native brush fill out the background. Gold and red colors dominate the circular border. The back is charcoal. The condition of the tray is outstanding with no restoration and no touch up to the lithography; special quality for this RARE and attractive tray, and no need to ever upgrade. You won't find a better example. Advertising beer trays such as this would have been used in bars and saloons by servers to carry drinks, hopefully Hinkel's beer! The manufacturer of this tray was "Chas. W. Shonk Chicago no.2191." which is noted in very small print on the tray at the bottom under "Lager Beer" (see image). I have only seen this tray before sparingly (never in this condition), and I would think that it is very scarce, as a search of the brewery reveals very little. They must have been in business for a short period of time.This is a very desirable bar room item; the elk subject matter makes it even more compelling. Dimensions: 12" diameter x 1/2" high Note: A metal magnetic rectangular bar especially made for beer trays to make hanging for display easy, is included with the purchase (see rear image of the tray). Provenance: I guarantee the authenticity of this tray. It is from my own personal collection of Fine Quality Saloon and Americana memorabilia. Please see other items I have listed in this genre.
