Breweries that are only open for a couple of years like this did not have a long time to produce advertising and collectibles so they tend to be more scarce than breweries with more longevity. 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. Fred Horix & John Kirn Brewery was in an active brewing city. Akron, OH was listed as having 6 breweries, which is quite a few.
