From the Collection of Mark Rogers. Deeper than most 13" trays. Grammes, Inc. of Allentown, PA is not seen very often as a tray manufacturer. "Purity Beer" version. Neuweiler also had some great eye catching coasters as part of this advertising campaign. |

Internet image capture. This image was certainly used on multiple Neuweiler trays and Carlsberg tray in Europe. It is known as the "Brewmaster." This 12" variation is distinguishable by a O.I.C. Co. manufactures mark and not having the "Light Lager" shield at 7 o'clock. |

From the Collection of John Demczyszyn. This 12" variation has no tray manufactures mark and does have the "Light Lager" shield at 7 o'clock. In some of these versions the Brewmaster hat and apron appear to be blue versus brown, but we are not sure if this is intentional or just color fading. |
