The reverse painted glass signs in the sale were purportedly found circa 1975 to 1981 in Chicago in The Western Sand Blast Mfg. Co. building upon it's sale and transfer to a new owner. An individual named Tony Kottmeier recovered these beautiful examples of chipped glass and embossed signs. All of the signs were discovered unfinished without paint, or silver or gold leaf decoration. Tony knew folks who could complete the process, did so with most of the find, and offered them to collectors in the condition you now see them. In addition to beer related signs, many other product categories were also in the same factory find. Some of the exact signs offered in this sale are featured in early Western Sand Blast catalogs as examples of the work they would do shortly after the turn of the century. These heavy signs, many with beveled edges, are wonderful examples of an art form rarely found today.
