Saw It on eBay: Pre-Prohibition Joliet Beer Glass

This item, produced by the now-defunct Porter Brewing Company, is being auctioned at a starting price of $19.99.

Given the number of items being sold/auctioned on eBay related to beer, Joliet was/is a town that liked its ale.

Consider this pre-Prohibition-era beer glass from the Porter Brewing Co., which had been located in Joliet. 

The seller says there's a slight chip in the rim and stands about 4.5 inches tall. They started the bidding at $19.95 ($5.85 for shipping) and there's already one potential buyer ready to pick it up if no one outbids him/her.
