D. G. Yuengling Jr.

[MichaelFla]

Picked up this unlisted Yuengling bottle yesterday. I know nothing about them, but couldn't beat the price. Can anybody tell me the approximate value, and/or if there is a big market for them? It has minor damage from the lightning stopper, but is overall very nice.D. G. YUENGLING JR. / BREW. CO'S / LAGER BEER / SARATOGA BRANCH / REGISTERED (all within slug plate)Reverse side says: THIS BOTTLE / NOT TO / BE SOLD

thay may be still round.

Oh, yeah. They're still around. Very popular beer. But the champagne beer style bottles are no longer in use, which is what I'm asking about.

Yuengling is the oldest brewery still existence. Since 1829. They are originally from Pottsville Penn, Not Saratoga. The Saratoga branch may make it tougher but I'll assume the pottsville common. Usually they'll say Yuengling & Son & sometimes Sons. Not familar with the JR? LEON.
