Great sign! There was apparently Burgermeister Brewing Co. in San Francisco, purchased by Falstaff in the early 70's. Anybody know specifically where it was located, who owned it before Falstaff, and when it closed or what happened to it?
Grew up there in San Francisco through the 50's & 60's. Had a Dad who was a "BURGIE" man. Loved that Beer, he did...Great sign...
I have a Burgie Temperature gauge it appears to be real old, I have surfed the net and can not find any info on it can you help me? On the back it say advertising products Inc. Cincinnati 23, Ohio made in the U.S.A but there is no date. If you need a picture I can take one and send it to you.
Don't know much more than what has already been stated above. I like it, if ever selling, I would be interested.
Thanks for sharing.

I have a BURGIE! NEON SIGN and was wondering what it is worth, I have had it a long time, since I was a student at San Francisco State. BURGIE is part of the history of San Francisco. Along with Falstaff and others.
