Comments: What an awesome tray. It was posted twice on eBay. First time I missed bidding on it and was really upset as I really wanted this tray. Fortunately for me, the item did not reach reserve. The second time I caught it and would have happily paid much more for this awesome tray. Truly embodies a classic manly Images of the early 1900's. Great colors, subject matter and fonts. You also have to love the slogan on the rim - "Vigor and Strength in Every Drop" - too much. Another interesting aspect of this tray is its listing of both "The Meek Co." and "Bachrach & Company, Pac. Coast Rep." This tray dates before 1909 as it is labeled "The Meek Co." Incredible tray, which for some Kismet- ing reason, found its way into my collection. Lucky me!!! | ||
