This Prohibition-era Coors Pure Malted Milk container, crafted for soda fountains, reflects a unique chapter of American history. During the alcohol ban, Coors shifted its focus to malted milk production. Made with a white ceramic body and a metal lid, this container exemplifies a critical pivot in Coors' product line. A rare artifact from the 1920s, it offers insight into the adaptability of businesses during a transformative period.
