Comments/description: Early Schlitz piece dates to 1892 as it was likely printed prior to Jan 1 of the year shown on the calendar. Lots to see in this piece, from the figures at the top, to the barrelhead with the calendar and advertising, to the panorama of the 1893 Columbian Exposition (in Chicago) depicted in the bottom window. Printed by The Gugler Lithograph Co. of Milwaukee. A scarce piece in a wonderful vintage frame. 11 w x 16 h. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
Condition: Blemishes as shown yet still an excellent display. Do not overlook these that may be hard to see in the photos: tack holes near the full-color globe and near the lithographer mark at lower right; detatched section above the woman that may look like a crease in the photos.
