Description: Jax Brewery New Orleans, Louisiana Then Now NOTE **This is a Copy from the Original Vintage Photo You must get yourself one of these!! THIS PHOTO WOULD ALSO MAKE A GREAT GIFT** 8x10 Photo of the Historical JAX Sign from the JAX BREWERY New Orleans Louisiana The brewery was founded by Lawrence Fabacher in 1890 as Jackson Bohemian Brewery; its name was later changed to Jax Beer and finally Jackson Brewing Company, after Andrew Jackson and Jackson Square. It soon grew to be a prominent regional brewery, and wasthe only New Orleans brewery to surviveProhibition. In 1935, Jackson Brewing Company entered a legal dispute with Jacksonville Brewing Company over the "Jax Beer" trademark, used by both companies. This resulted in a compromise in which Jacksonville Brewing Company got exclusive rights to sell in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina, while Jackson Brewing got states to the west. Jackson Brewing expanded in the 1940s, as demand increased. In the 1950s, the company suffered competition from the growing national breweries. In 1954, it bought exclusive rights to the Jax trademark from the Jacksonville company, which ended brewing operations. This move made Jackson Brewing the 10th largest brewery in the U.S., and the largest in the South. However, Jackson Brewing entered financial straits and was acquired by Pearl Brewing Company in 1974. Pearl continued producing Jax Beer until 1984, when it was acquired by Pabst Brewing Company and took on Pabst branding. The brewery building remains a landmark in New Orleans. After brewing operations ceased, the building was purchased and turned into space for shops and restaurants.This JAX sign was taken down and Restored and then put back up on thatHistoric JAX BUILDING Please look at all pictures and contact me with any questions.
