As s collector of “old beer stuff” for many years, I’ve accumulated various and assorted beer related items. I buy, trade and sell items from a large variety of breweries. My personal favorite is Stegmaier Brewing Company of Wilkes-Barre, Pa. who distributed a wealth of advertising spanning nearly 100 years.
I’m always looking for items that are different or unique from Steg. I’m a member of ECBA. If you have any special interests or just want to stop by for a beer chat, drop me a note. Thanks for visiting and happy hunting.
Come back and visit now and then. I’m always updating the Steg photo gallery and my “for sale or trade” pages.
In addition to my beer collecting, I collect old Pennsylvania fishing licenses and Phillies baseball cards. Also, I enjoy bowling, and am an avid fisherman. If I don’t respond right away to your mail it’s probably cause the “GONE FISHING” sign is posted.

Prior Liquid Luxury beer tray. 12 inch round. Late 40's or early 50's vintage. Really nice example. If you look at the photo, you can see a small lighter colored oval mark between the word "Liquid" and the unicorn. That mark is on the tray, but only noticable at some...
P. Ballantine & Sons, Newark, NJ
Ballantine Beer & Ale baseball theme sign; 10 1/2 x 13 1/2 inch, Decal on pressed board sign featuring Mel Allen, the voice of the New York Yankees. Probably 50's vintage. Great cross-collectible in very nice shape. The only issue is that the easel stand is...

Heineken Beer; 18 x 9 1/2 inch, hanging sign. Heavy clear plastic with sturdy gold hanging chain. Some minor scuff marks. Nice and not a bunch around. Newer vintage, but not current.
Molson, Canada
Molson Golden; 14 x 13 1/4 inch, 3-demensional plastic sign with hanger on the back. Some scuffing on the raised silver boarders. White portion as some light staining. Still a nice, attractive sign. Problems are not significant. I think this is a little older vintage.
Standard Rochester Brewing Co., Inc., Rochester, NY
Topper Draught Beer party barrel; 15 1/4 x 13 1/4 inch, cardboard point-of-sale sign with an easel stand on the back. I would think this is from the 60's. Great subject matter and very nice shape. Corner points are soft and there is a faint wrinkle in the top left...

Topper Pilsener; 16 x 8 inch reverse-on-glass sign. Has a string hanger on the back. Late 50's or 60's vintage. As shown in the photo, the lower right corner shows some paint sticking to the cardboard backing instead of the glass. Rest of the sign is in great shape...

D. G. Yuengling & Son, Inc., Pottsville, PA
Yuengling Lager pub tap; 11 3/4 inch, 2-sided, decal on composition wood. Unused. The very top edge of one of the side "Lager" decals appears that it did not have enough adhesive. 1/8 inch at most is lifting a bit.

Anheuser World Select Lager Beer; 12 1/2 inch, 3-sided, Metal. Gold portion is metal. Globe sounds like metal but not sure. Makes a very nice display tap if you don't want to use it. Unused. Some light reflection in the photo.
