An outstanding, exceptional porcelain antique occupational shaving mug of the well-known Newark, N.J. beer brewer and bottler, John B. Brasser, written in gilt on the top.
See additional photos of his bottles and horse-drawn wagons in front of his business in Newark.
There is a Pabst Blue Ribbon on the front of the mug with "Pabst Milwaukee" well-defined in the circle. There is also cursive writing on the blue ribbon that is slightly faded. And below that in tiny legible block lettering it says, "The Beer of Quality." The mug is banded in deep red. All of the gilt, excepting around the base is crisp and bright. This is one of the finest mugs in the collection with some nice local history attached to it.
