The post below was originally posted to the old forum last year. I’m reposting it here as Tony has some updates.
I got a message from the owner of a collection of Irish breweriana, Tony Brookes, who is looking to sell:
I have some rare Guinness bottle presentation packs –
1. Silver Jubilee Guinness (1977) – bottles
(I have 3) and an inscribed goblet
2. *** Silver Jubilee SCOTTISH Guinness (1977) presentation box with 2 bottles and inscribed goblet including outer box (this cost me £200 back in 1977!!)
3. Guinness LVNH Duke of Edinburgh ‘Change of keys’ (1980) presentation box with 2 bottles and inscribed glass (I have 3 of 5000 packs) including outer box
Also the following Guinness bottles from same era –

I also have a lot of Irish breweriana from when my company used to import Irish beers which I would like to sell as one lot. Photo attached . It includes lots of packs of beer mats, advertising posters, bottle openers etc
