Dominion Brewery, Toronto, Canada 13 inch round, Dominion White Label Ale pie rim tray. I think 30's vintage. Popular beagles subject matter and fairly scarce. The condition on this tray is hard to describe without making it sound bad. Face has overall various wear issues, but nothing major that jumps out at you. The worst wear is the outer rim lip. If you're not fussy, I think you'll be happy with it and the way it displays. No dents or rust other than some pit specks. 7+
