Reference: n/aBrewery: Hampden Brewing Co., Willimansett, MAManufacturer/Plant: UnmarkedDate of manufacture: circa 1930sCanning Code: n/a Contents/Type: N/ACondition/Comments: Note that this is the scarcer version of this design that features black text for the words Who Wants The Handsome Waiter? Other differences from the more common version include a much lighter background that shows far more detail and has a warmer, yellower tint (versus a blue-green cast on the other variation). Also, this version lacks the brewery initials and 1934 copyright date to the left of the Who Wants... text. The tray is in excellent condition, with excellent paint integrity and color. While the surface is no longer shiny, it does posses a sheen and only exhibits some small marks, mostly toward the bottom. It is free of dents and dings, very straight. The edge has some chipping but the rim is very nice. Scarce variation from the Cushman Family collection. 13-inch diameter. All original.
