    This item is another rare item. It's a 1930's 'Canadian Breweries Limited' barrel lid. Founded by E.P. Taylor when his holdings company, Brewing Corporation of Ontario, merged several breweries together. I have only seen two other items relating to this company. One was another lid, the other, an actual bottle. Not sure what the four holes would have been for...possible bar stool? According to Wiki, one notable exec was George Montegu Black II, father of Conrad Black. Here's a link to some info. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Canadian_Breweries_Limited&oldid=592432833

    Interesting to know if there are barrel lid collectors?
