John King & Herber Brewery started doing business circa 1875 and was in production until 1880 which means they operated for around 5 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. Our information indicates that John King & Herber Brewery was the only brewery that was located in McHenry, IL sometimes this means that items from a brewery will have extra value in the area it comes from because there are not other sources for local breweriana.
- Other Notes: Herber also spelled as Herbes
