SOLD Babe Ruth era Fenway Beer Bottle Opener
 

Since they've been selling beer at Fenway Park since 1912 would like the think it was from a beer vendor there who was cracking cold ones open for the fans. Definitely vintage to the period, or maybe came from a Tavern outside the park back in the days of Babe Ruth.

Just a VERY neat side piece & conversation piece!
