    Most of our antique items qualify for duty-free import due to their age (100+ years). In most cases, the price paid at checkout is the total cost to the buyer. However, customs policies can vary, and U.S. Customs may occasionally apply taxes, duties, or brokerage fees upon delivery. Any such fees are the responsibility of the buyer. We always declare items accurately and do our best to minimize surprises.

    FOR SALE ☞
    Vintage Hamm’s Beer 3D Wall Plaque Sign with Crest, 1970s–1980s Bar Display

    DESCRIPTION ☞
    This is a vintage molded wall plaque produced for Hamm’s Beer, featuring a raised three-dimensional crest with lion, barley, and hop detailing.

    The piece is constructed from molded plastic with a faux woodgrain outer frame and metallic-finish crest elements. The lower panel displays the brand name in red script over a blue field reading “Born in the land of sky blue waters Since 1865,” with small print noting Olympia Brewing Company, Olympia – St. Paul.

    The design reflects late 1970s to 1980s bar décor styling, when dimensional plastic wall signage became popular in taverns, rec rooms, and home bars.

    The crest has strong visual presence with reflective silver and gold finishes, and the plaque retains its original keyhole hanger on the reverse for wall mounting.

    A solid example of period American brewery advertising décor.

    DIMENSIONS ☞
    Approximately 14–15 inches tall
    Approximately 12 inches wide
    Depth approximately 1.5 inches

    Minor scuffs and small marks to the white lower panel.
    Some finish variation and mottling visible to the faux woodgrain frame and back.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you accept returns?

    For EU & UK buyers: As required by consumer law, most online purchases can be cancelled within 14 days of delivery. Certain exceptions apply (antiques, collectibles, items sold “for parts/repair”). Buyer pays return shipping, and refunds are issued only after the item is received and verified in its original condition.

    For buyers outside the EU/UK (e.g. USA, Canada): All sales are considered final. Returns are not accepted except in cases of significant misrepresentation.

    Do you accept exchanges?

    No. All of our items are considered one-offs and unique so we can not offer exchanges at this time.

    Will I have to pay extra customs or duty fees if I’m in the U.S.?

    We ship all U.S. orders using the most reliable method available. Some items (especially antiques over 100 years old or U.S.-made goods) are tariff-exempt under current rules. For other items, we do our best to pre-pay duties and include them in the price (known as DDP — Delivered Duty Paid) so what you see at checkout is what you’ll pay.

    What does “DDP” mean?

    DDP stands for Delivered Duty Paid. It means we take care of the customs paperwork and fees on our end whenever possible. That way, your package clears the border smoothly and you won’t get a surprise bill on delivery.

    Are there any exceptions?

    Most antiques and U.S.-made vintage items ship duty-free. European pieces are usually covered by DDP (we pre-pay the duty and build it into the price). Canadian-made vintage can sometimes carry higher tariffs; in those rare cases, we’ll either adjust the listing price to reflect the duty or let you know up front if extra charges could apply. If you have any concerns regarding tariffs, please message us prior to purchase and we would be happy to do some research for you!

    What happens if customs does charge extra?

    We’re transparent about this from the start: buyers are responsible for any customs/import fees that may apply. That said, we always do our best to minimize the risk by using the right codes and carriers. If you have questions about a specific item, message us before checkout and we’ll give you an honest answer about what to expect.

    Why do some Canadian shops say “buyer is responsible for duty”?

    That’s Etsy’s default policy. We go a step further by explaining how duties work and when we can cover them. Our goal is to make your buying experience smooth and surprise-free.
