Vintage Hamms Preferred Munchner Hof Brau Stock Coaster Appraisal

Vintage Hamms Preferred Münchner Hof-Bräu Stock Coaster

This appears to be a vintage coaster or bottle cap liner made of pressed or layered paper product. It is circular in shape with a diameter of approximately 3 inches, situated on a gray textured background, likely a carpet or rug. The item is primarily light brown or tan in color with red printing. The printing is arranged in a circular format around the edge and in the center. Around the outer edge, the text reads "Hamms Preferred Münchner Hof-Bräu Stock". The inner text is arranged centrally in several lines, stating "Pilsner Bürger Bräu", "Imported Wines & Liquors", and a smaller line at the bottom edge which is mostly illegible but seems to include a location which a close view reveals is "Dresden, Germany". The edges of the coaster show signs of wear, including some fraying and minor chipping. The paper material itself exhibits some surface wear and discoloration consistent with age and potential past use. There are no obvious tears or significant damage, but the overall condition suggests it is an older piece. The printing is still clear and legible despite the age. The design and text indicate it is advertising material for a company that imported or sold Hamms Preferred, Münchner Hof, and Bürger Bräu beers, as well as imported wines and liquors. The mention of "Dresden, Germany" suggests either the importer, distributor, or brewery was located there, or it was intended for distribution in that region or by a German company. The simple design and material suggest an estimated age perhaps from the early to mid-20th century, likely prior to extensive plastic use for such items.
