Default How about building a type set of Cabinet Cards

Posted By: Greg Theberge

I saw that "delphi" in the window. One would think it's Philadelphia, but the rest doesn't seem to fit in window. It's not a reflection, it's a reversed on glass painting. Hmmm
Anyway, shoot me any details you have on this.

Here's another confusing part...
If that banner does say Lang's Lager (I can't make it out), Lang's (according to my references here) was brewed in the thirties which doesn't make any sense at all based on the age of this photo which I would date to anywhere between 1895-1910.

I'm going to forward this photo to a beer dealer/good friend of mine to see if he has any ideas if you can get me some detailed scans. If anyone would know where this is, he would. He was one of the co-authors of a book we put out by Schiffer a few years back on New England Brewery advertising
