Brass Pabst Promotional Thing.

[toddrandolph]

That brass thing is part of a sign. I have one that is intact for POC (Pride of Cleveland) beer. There would have been glass on the front with reverse painting. The embossed brass parts were not painted and showed through the glass. There is other writing on the reverse painting. Mine has a partial label on the back, ____EFER-ROSS CO INC and below some other writing including fine signs 25 years. The partial label has a strong art deco 1930s-40s look to it and I think mine is post prohibition. If you want to see a photo, I'll take one and post it. Interesting find that I would not have known what it was if I didn't have an intact one.

label on back. If anyone knows the full name of the company it would be interesting to know the age. The 25 year part indicates they could have been in operation both pre and post prohibition.
