Duluth Mugs
Description: The Northern Brewing Company was founded in 1890 by Louis Rueping and John A. Klinkert as the KIinkert Brewing Company. Both Klinkert and Rueping had worked many years in the brewing business before setting up this brewery in West Superior, Wisconsin. After Klinkert's partnership ended in 1898, Louis Rueping renamed the original brewery the L. Rueping Company. In the following months, he reorganized and incorporated the Northern Brewing Company. Northern eventually grew to become one of Superior's most prosperous industries. At one time, Northern beer outsold the combined sales of all other brands in the city.

Description: “Aerial Lift Bridge in Duluth Minnesota” Duluth’s Aerial Lift Bridge is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks—only Lake Superior tops it, according to the visitors center. Standing 138 feet and stretching 390 feet, the steel span crosses the Duluth Ship Canal, linking Park Point’s sandbar to the city. Its lifting system raises the deck to 135 feet to let massive ships pass. It was impressive to watch it lift to various heights depending on the size of each vessel. Here, the Vista Star tour boat passes under the bridge. Copyright Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved 20250810-DSC_3145
