Comments: A few items to talk about on this baby. 1) This is a stock tray with a 12" version and a 13" version. 2) Most common version is the Hohenadel Smoking Dog which is a 13". 3) The 12" versions I am aware of are the Fresno and a Fuhrmann and Schmidt version from the same time period. I believe I have also seen one from southern California, but off the top of my head, I can't remember the brewery. 4) The subject matter of this tray is a hoot. A miniature Schnauzer sitting on a table, surrounded by clergy men, smoking a cigarette - WHAT???? | ||
