Scheidts Beer Ale Tray, marked 'Scheidts, Valley Forge Beer, Rams Head Ale, Norristown PA.' with full color picture of Washington & his troops at Washington's Headquarters, Valley Forge. Round metal tray measuring 11 1/4 inches in diameter and sits 1 1/4 inches in height.

Overall good shape, but far from mint -- shows age/wear flaws from use and time. Please note that we try to describe everything we see to be fair, but most of this won't be visible in the images due to being shot further away to show the whole tray (the white "hot spots" in the images are reflection from the camera lighting on the metal surfaces). Also, none of this is unexpected given the age and probable use of this tray. There are no major dents, cracks, bends, etc. Regardless still very presentable, collectable and usable.

If you look closely at an angle in bright light you'll see many flaws to the center decor, but otherwise they are not apparent, and most wouldn't see them. However, these flaws from use/age include many rubbed areas, scratches, lines, dots, etc. What is apparent on general viewing is some wear to the upper red tray rim, particularly one spot about 3/4 inch in width where you see silver from the red paint being worn away. Elsewhere on the rim you can see silver lines, dots, etc. The most wear is visible on the blue bottom of the tray, as to be expected. There are scratch lines, dots, rubbed wear, etc. On the outer blue side to the tray there is some evidence of wear but not bad, but on close looking you will see some scratches, rubbed spots, dots, etc.
