This original brass sign is from the "Milwaukee Brewery, Melsheimer Mack & Co. Proptrs."

It was finely hand etched & engraved by Gustav A. Seibel in the late 1890's

when the Max Melsheimer & John Mack partnership held the Milwaukee Brewery

at 223 Larimer Street, Denver, Colorado from 1895 to 1900.

Previous to that, it was Melsheimer & Co., 1879 - 1888;

Milwaukee & Melsheimer, 1888 - 1895.

[In 1900, John Good took it over & ran it under the name of the Tivoli Brewery.

The building still stands as a downtown Denver landmark & houses

the original copper kettles of those early breweries. It is used as the Student Union Complex

of the Auraria Campus' of Metropolitan State College & the University of Colorado at Denver.]

The sign reads "Manufactured by Gustav A. Seibel, Proptr

Colo. Sheet Metal Works Denver" around the triangular crest of the brewery.

Note the incredible deep details & beautiful cursive lettering.

Seibel signed it at the bottom with a symbol of a "mug B II noch Zwei".

The sign measures, overall, 10-1/8" h x 14" w & weighs about 2 pounds.

around the Brewery's logo has chipped off.
