Description
This is an original 1903 business letter from Bartels Brewing Co., located in Syracuse, New York. The letterhead features a detailed black-and-white engraved image of the brewery complex, along with a prominent red trademark seal and ornate typography highlighting their Stock Lager, Pale Crown, Extra Pale, Fine Ales, and Porter varieties. The document is dated June 26, 1903, and addressed to Mr. C.A. Lux, a cooperage in Clyde, NY, requesting price quotes on flagging. Bartels Brewing Co. was a well-known brewery in the early 20th century, and this letter provides a fascinating glimpse into the commercial correspondence and brewing industry practices of that era. The letter is typewritten with a handwritten signature from the treasurer of Chemung Consumers Brewing Co., adding to its collectible appeal. The paper shows typical age-related wear including fold lines and mild discoloration but retains excellent legibility and visual impact. This piece is ideal for collectors of brewery ephemera, early 1900s business documents, or those interested in American brewing history. Its detailed imagery and clear date make it a valuable artifact illustrating the beer production and trade communication of the period.
