Viking Brewery opened in 1933 and closed in 1934 it was open for 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 This listing was active during Prohibition which makes it an oddity. Some breweries were able to stay in business by producing "near-beer" which was very low alcohol, some switched over to bottling sodas or other beverages, some became Ice-houses or other related businesses. Viking Brewery was located in Catasauqua, PA, 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.
