Donald, was looking through eBay and found that there was a Schultz mug being sold separate from Dooley. I don’t know whether you are looking for an original, second issue, etc. but again, I urge ya’ll to troll this site as often as you can to keep up with the UC items posted, sold and or relisted for sale. You didn’t mention whether the Schultz was an original with the info stamped under the handle or not. I LOVE Schultz and Dooley. Good luck with replacing the missing mug.

Again, I’ve seen several Schultz’ in diver’s masks on eBay. Please become active in trolling the site to find what you are looking for. Patience is a virtue and you might need some. eBay also has/had the ability for those looking for a specific item to post what they are looking for. Check it out.. can’t hurt. In mean time, if I see one anywhere, I’ll post back. -Cindy.

Lois, eBay really is the best place to sell the UC items that you don’t want to keep. I’ve seen the items that have no bids. That’s usually because the seller has too large a starting price or reserve- they don’t want to risk getting less than what they want for an item and, therefore push the seller into meeting their price. Many times these items are touted to be “originals” or “first editions” but they are not. Oh, there’s always craigslist if Ebay is not one of your options.

Without knowing what steins you have and the markings on them, it’s hard to tell you what to expect to get for them. A guide to markings can be found at: http://www.schultzanddooleyonline.com/pages/markings. This will give you a good idea of when and how many of your stein(s) was made. Then you will know how rare or common your steins are when trying to identify a price point. Pictures and documentation are key when selling… to a collector, that is.

Peruse the website and determine what you have, then troll eBay for some price comparisons. If all else fails, holler back. If I have the same steins that you are selling, I might be able to pull a reasonable selling fee out of my drawer. Have fun with them! Cindy

I could use some help. My friend Karen passed away and left me many of her steins. Some were broken in shipping, but many survived and it cost over $300. to have them shipped cross country. There are only a few that I really love. I wondered if there is a place I could sell them that you are aware of. Ebay has a couple listed, but they have no bids on them. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Some of these are the original early ones.

Glad you liked the post. Here’s an interesting link for you:

Scroll to the bottom until you get to the pair of UC lights. Imagine, this seller is from NY and had never come across a set of these lights before. Look at the price!! And these are not in perfect condition as the steins have the thumb opener piece missing. I’m such a loon that I have 2 perfect sets and 2 sets like these. You guessed it- eBay! I bought one imperfect and one perfect. I managed to rebuild the other two with damaged original parts that someone was selling for a couple bucks. For a while, here, I thought I had a Schultz and Dooley lamp graveyard box! I have a 27 year old son who is sure digging it. Or rather, waiting to dig my grave so he can get them all!!! Little does he know that I have an 18 year old nostalgic daughter with her own eyes for UC. So, my collection must grow. Hmmmm, in some ways I feel like I’m in the throes of becoming a UC hoarder. Naw. Just a person with great childhood memories of going out on the seller’s route with my dad, putting up advertising, and being in on the newest sales promotion- like that ole’ psychedelic phase. Oh dear, it’s time to quit the post… I can hear the song ‘Memories’ playing in the back of what little brain I still manage to hang on to… – Cindy

Great post! I’ve living in the Utica, NY area for about 15 years and have always been impressed with the FX Matt Brewing company. When they suffered their fire last year we all got to see what an outstanding local company they are as they rebuild for that major fire.

Thanks – b
