"THROUGH BREWERIANA COLLECTIBLES THE HISTORY OF THE BREWING INDUSTRY WILL BE PRESERVED"

A Brief History
The Eastern Coast Breweriana Association (ECBA) was formally established on September 12, 1970 in Hicksville, New York. The ECBA is a nonprofit organization incorporated in the state of New Jersey on February 29, 1984. It is the oldest breweriana organization in the United States. It is open to anyone with an interest in breweriana.
 

From a small group of 13 charter members, the association membership has grown to over 500 active members.

 
The Association's
official insignia
       was accepted at Poughkeepsie, New York on March 6, 1971.
