By the time this book was published in 1906, brewers everywhere had recognized that bottling was the future of the brewing industry. This technical manual issued by the world-famous Chicago brewing school, the Wahl-Henius Institute, was one of the first (if not the first) in-depth guide for bottling beer. Twenty-five chapters delve into every aspect of beer bottling, illustrated throughout with diagrams and charts. Also includes a number of advertisements for bottling equipment, machinery and supplies. The book is very scarce. Only about a dozen copies have survived in American libraries.
This copy is autographed on the title page, "With the compliments of the author Philip Dreesbach."
CONDITION: Poor. The spine cloth is missing. Binding is cracked. Rear board is threatening to separate. This rare and autographed copy is prime for a professional restoration. Inside is mostly clean. All pages present and ready for re-binding.
