Early breweries aggressively created appealing labels, advertising and wares, like serving trays and ash trays. The proof of their branding success was usually measured by a steady stream of patrons, and by their longevity.

These days the best local collections often feature that special piece of hometown breweriana. Who wouldn’t love to have one of Helena’s six different Kessler B**r trays to show their friends?

Missouri River Chronicle Antiques carries a nice selection of Helena and Montana breweriana.

Located at 1125 Helena Ave, we’re open from 11-2 Fridays and Saturdays. The entrance and parking are along Boulder Ave. next to Great Harvest Bread.

We’re always interested in buying Helena and Montana advertising pieces, or collections. Please call 406 202 1814 for information or to set up an appointment.

Combine the beauty of our national parks with the auras of our indigenous people and it’s easy to understand why the best turn-of-the-century photographers were attracted to Montana.

Early photographers like F. Jay Haynes, L.A. Huffman, T.J. Hileman, and Roland Reed left many of their riveting images for us to study. We feature photographs, collotypes, photogravures, and post cards by those lens men, and others, at Missouri River Chronicle Antiques.

Come in and enjoy their work.

Missouri River Chronicle Antiques, 1125 Helena Ave, is open from 11-2 Fridays and Saturdays. Our entrance and parking lot are on Boulder Ave. next to Great Harvest Bread.

We also actively buy antiques, fine furniture, collections of Kessler b**r items and old Helena advertising pieces. Please call 406-202-1814 for information or to set up an appointment.

Many utilitarian turn-of-the-century storage vessels, like crocks and jugs, have a striking beauty. In our area and throughout the Midwestern Northern Plaines, Red Wing pottery could be found in most homes, especially before the advent of modern refrigeration.

These days Red Wing wares, crafted near the massive clay banks along the Mississippi River in Southern Minnesota, embellish many homes and are valuable collectibles.

Missouri River Chronicle Antiques always has a large selection of Red Wing crocks and jugs. Come in and admire the beautiful slips, rust wings or cobalt markings.

Missouri River Chronicle Antiques, 1125 Helena Ave, is open from 11-2 Fridays and Saturdays. The entrance and parking are off Boulder Ave. next to Great Harvest Bread.

When can a beautiful antique bookcase be more than a bookcase?

When you use it to display your favorite collections, like Navajo pottery, or old wooden toys, or old fishing lures. The list is only limited by your imagination.

We have a great selection of antique bookcases in our store, including 2 exceptional barristers, a small arts and crafts piece and several enclosed glass cases.

Come in and shop this weekend. It’ll be hot outside, but cool inside our climate-controlled shop.
