Early items can still be valuable as can rarer types of items. This listing was active during Prohibition which makes it an oddity. Some breweries were able to stay in business by producing "near-beer" which was very low alcohol, some switched over to bottling sodas or other beverages, some became Ice-houses or other related businesses. Schoenhofen Edelweiss Co. Brewery was in an active brewing city. Chicago, IL was listed as having 166 breweries, which is quite a few.
