does anyone collect beer mirrors?
I had a streak there where I was nuts about beer mirrors and have a nice collection... so far I have:
Hamms: all 4 bear mirrors (grizzly, brown, black and polar)
Miller:
set 1: I only have the walleye
set 2: complete
set 3: complete (diamond shape)
set 4: I have the first two in the series that I ordered from the studio. They are hand signed and numbered, and the bobcat is #67! I also have the timber wolves from that set.
I am on a mission now tho... I WANT & NEED the Budweiser Brittany mirror. I have an amount that I'm comfy spending and can only hope to one day run across this mirror. I spent over 3 hours on the net last night trying to find something, anything on this mirror... nada. I'll attach a pic, anyone ever seen it or have it? I took the pic at a friends house who actually has it. It's the only one I've ever seen...
What mirrors do you have?

I used to collect beer cans way back in the late 70's early 80's.

I found 2 on ebay that ended on Dec 18 and the 21st. So it's out there and I would just keep checking. They both went for $350 shipped. I will keep my eye out as well and e-mail you when I find one.

I used to have a pool table in my garage as well as for many years worked for a major microbrewery. I still have a bunch of mirrors and signs hanging even though the pool table is no longer there.

I get tons of Budweiser blow ups from 3 foot footballs, soccer balls, baseballs, cans and bottles. Along with signs, coasters, coasters, and more coasters, nick nacs.....and the best yet I haven't picked up is a Dale Earnhardt Jr. standup. Sister works for a Budweiser dist. in the marketing department and has been there for about 20 years. I've got so much stuff I had to start hanging it from the ceiling in my garage (and letting the kids use some for gigantic play balls). Luckily it's 15' so they stay out of the way of ping pong  . But no wood signs, how strange...oh yeah, those cost too much $ for freebies. I scored a cool millennium neon Budweiser sign at a garage sale for $30 a few years back and hangs proudly above my framed Ronald McDonald puzzle in my bar. Funny thing is, I don't care for cheap beer and haven't bought any in over 10 years. (nor fastfood, but maybe my name has something to do with that)
