M. Schmick & Co. Brewery started doing business circa 1895 and was in production until 1896 which means they operated for around 1 years. Since it was only open for a short period of time items for this brewery can be accurately dated and are likely to be rarer than normal As a Pre-Prohibition Brewery, any advertising items or collectibles are likely to be valuable and desirable to collectors as they tend to be hard to find. M. Schmick & Co. Brewery was located in Freeport, IL, which only had 5 breweries, so there are not many that that were producing breweriana items. Local collectors may pay a small premium over national or general collectors because of a lack of local items.
