Assorted group of four vintage beer tap handles produced for commercial draft systems, comprising a mix of ceramic, wood, and composite constructions. The group includes examples branded for Old Milwaukee Red, Milwaukee, J.W. Dundee’s Honey Brown Lager, and Pecatonica. Forms range from rectangular ceramic handles with applied graphics to turned wooden handles with inset labels and a round-topped modern craft-style handle. Each handle retains its original threaded brass or metal fitting for mounting to a standard draft faucet. The variety of shapes, materials, and branding reflects evolving bar and brewery marketing practices from the mid- to late 20th century, spanning legacy national beer brands and smaller regional or craft producers.
Shows general surface wear consistent with bar use, including light scuffing, finish wear, and minor edge marks. Graphics remain legible across all examples. All handles sold together as a group.
