**Historical Background of Pabst Brewing and Pabst Corporation**
Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1844 by Jacob Best as The Empire Brewery, Pabst Brewing has a rich history. Phillip Best, Jacob's son, took control in 1860, followed by Frederick Pabst, son-in-law of Phillip Best, who assumed leadership in 1866 and rebranded the company as Pabst Brewing in 1889. After Frederick Pabst's death in 1904, his sons Gustave and Frederick Jr. continued to steer the brewery through Prohibition and helped establish it as an iconic American beer brand. Frederick Pabst Jr., a key figure in the company's legacy, served as Chairman Emeritus of Pabst Brewing and President of the Pabst Corporation.
This vintage stock certificate is a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts of American brewing history, representing a significant piece of the Pabst legacy.
