Comments: There are four variations of this nice tray. There is a 13" Pie and three 12" SS Dish versions. The one pictured here comes in two versions, this one with a bunch of writing and one without "Brewers of Fine Beer Since 1873" and " Famous Manayunk Beer" on the face. This version is by ACME of Philly. The other has the same words, but they are on the inside rim. It is by the Burdick Co. Go here for a side by side comparison. The other 12" version has Famous Manayunk straight across the top and with the words "Beer" and "Ale" in red versus black. Straub's indicates the other version is manufactured by Universal Tray and Sign. I am not sure on the Pie version. Some more investigation and a tray comparison are in order for this tray. For the longest time, I only thought there was one version. On the version I have pictured here, aligatoring of the paint is quite common. Still a cool tray. | ||
