Fortman & Graber Brewery – CA 311a

The Fortman & Graber Brewery began in 1875 and ceased operations sometime around 1877 meaning it was open for approximately 2 years. Breweries that are only open for a couple of years like this did not have a long time to produce advertising and collectibles so they tend to be more scarce than breweries with more longevity. As a Pre-Prohibition Brewery, any advertising items or collectibles are likely to be valuable and desirable to collectors as they tend to be hard to find. Fortman & Graber Brewery was in an active brewing city. San Francisco, CA was listed as having 83 breweries, which is quite a few. Sometimes a large number of breweries can lead to an active collecting community that will be willing to pay more for breweriana items than other collectors.
