Narragansett Brewing Company Window

#1

Post by HiNeighbor »

For those who haven't seen it on Facebook, my dad finally was able to score the second of two stained windows that hung in the administration building of the Narragansett Brewing Company when it began brewing beer again in the 1930s. It's going to need some restoration to the wooden frame, but it's going to be (another?) centerpiece of the collection. It was positioned above the "Made on Honor" Window we have and seen in one of the photos listed below. It took my dad about 20 years of hard work to bring it back to Rhode Island. I was originally back lit by a neon.

It all depends on whether you're buying or selling.

Holy cow! Awesome job on obtaining such a rare piece of history. Couldn't have gone to a better collector. Show some photos when restoration is complete, please.

Here they are together. The beginning of the end when Falstaff took the brewery over in 1965

Inquiring minds would like to know if we will see the restored sign in July. Could be the highlight of the day.

Thanks guys. The sign is still in the back of my dad's van. It is pretty large so finding a spot for it will be tricky. Yes, it will be ready (I hope) for the show in June. :)
