Star Union Beverage Co. – IL 319f

Star Union Beverage Co. opened in 1920 and closed in 1933 it was open for 13 years. Items from breweries of this age tend to be more common and less valuable than some breweries. 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. Star Union Beverage Co. was located in Peru, IL, which only had 2 breweries, so there are not many that that were producing breweriana items. Local collectors may pay a small premium over national or general collectors because of a lack of local items.

• Other Notes: Prohibition
