The Excelsior Brewery Inc. L-122 opened in 1896 and closed in 1932 it was open for 36 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. The Excelsior Brewery Inc. L-122 was in an active brewing city. Brooklyn, NY was listed as having 106 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.
