| Shultz Brewing Co., Union City, NJ | Schultz Quality beer tray. 12 inch round. 30's or early 40's vintage. Great shape and bright luster on this sharp looking tray that you don't see all that often. There's a small area of missing paint where the face meets the rim at 7 o'clock. You can see it in the photo. Still worth a 9+ grading. Backside is also clean. | 9+ (See Descr) |
