    Description

    A tin/litho beer or liquor tray--pre-prohibition-- from the Hennepin Brewing Company and given out as a gratuity by the Dufaud Wine & Liquor Co. in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
    The piece was made (and signed) by American Art Works in Coshocton, Ohio, foothills of Appalachia--who sprang to fame as the earliest tin litho tray company in America and made all the original Coca Cola trays.
    See: Breweriana Aficionado.com
    Features a copy of a famed Japanese art piece "Toy San". Good litho but not very colorful.
    Frankly, the back is far more interesting than the front. See pix for size. Good antique condition. No dents. Some scuffing, but in very good vintage condition.
    About 1915.
