Merz Products Co. Inc. Brewery opened in 1924 and closed in 1934 it was open for 10 years. This brewery was open for quite a few years so it is easier to find items and advertising than some breweries that did not last long, this can make the Breweriana items less valuable. 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. Merz Products Co. Inc. Brewery was in an active brewing city. New Orleans, LA was listed as having 41 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.
- Other Notes: Licensed during Prohibition, License number unknown
