Long Description
I have an old barrel lid from a company that closed it's doors in 1938. The company was Penn State Brewery before the prohibition. After the prohibition was lifted, they were told that their name had to change. In 1933, they became Penn Star Brewery. In 1935, they added Co. to their name. The lid that I am inquiring about shows the many changes of names. To keep costs down, they simply burned a "r" over the "te" in the word "state". They added stars, and the words "Star Beer" in the center of the circular design. Over one of the stars, they eventually burned "Co.". It is a very neat piece of prohibition history. Unfortunately, I am having no luck finding what something like this is worth.Â
