Note: This item came from a descendant of a brewery employee who worked at the Elk Brewery. Our guess is that he or the brewery marked the bench for ownership. If’s a unique piece with a great story, it has a “folk art” feel to it in someways too.

Presidential Rye Whiskey Clock
Here is a Presidential Rye Whiskey Clock from the E. De. Lue & Company Distillery located in Chicago, IL. This pre-prohibition era Rye Whiskey Clock is from between 1896 to 1918 and is in excellent condition considering how old it is. This clock is easily over 100 years old and is't amazing that it still operates and keeps accurate time too.
It's approximately 12" by 10" by 5" and is made of cast iron with a winding mechanical clock at the top. The cast text on the clock body reads "Presidential Pure Rye Malt" across the top and "The Best Medicinal Whiskey In America" across the bottom with the "E. De. Lue & Co. Chicago Sole Prop's" across the base.

Columbia Brewing Glass Sign
Here is a Columbia Brewing Glass Sign from the Columbia Brewing Company located in Shenandoah, PA. This pre-prohibition era Columbia Brewing Glass Sign is from between 1894 and 1900 era and is unfortunately in very poor condition although still somewhat displayable.
This Columbia Brewing Glass Sign was made by the Tuchfarber Company located in Cincinnati, OH. The sign is approximately 30″ wide, is a glass lithograph, and is made or reverse-painted glass mounted in a wooden frame.
The graphics on this sign (although very hard to make out) is a patriotic scene of a woman holding an American flag and leaning on a stars and stripes shield, and there looks to be an American Blad Eagle crouched to the right of the shield. The lettering on this sign reads “Columbia Brewing Company” along the top and “Shenandoah, PA” across the bottom. There looks to be remnants of lettering on the left side of the sign, most likely a beer style, similar to the “Weiss Beer” lettering to the right. There is a maker mark on the bottom right corner that reads “Tuchfarber Company – Cinci, OH”
