Don't I know it.
I've tried US Patents/Appraisals/etc. etc.

No, those are tap handles.
This is the whole tap itself. with the PAT. APPL'D 5675 stamped into it.

There are no similar items on EBAY or any other auction site.
I'm telling you this is one of a kind.

Having a picture would be helpful.

Do you know how old it is (approximately).

I have a scan image of it, but I don't know how to attach it to this page.
Age? No qlue. All I have on it is PAT. APPL'D 5675

For the image, it is best to put the image on a website then to use the Img button to link it to this site.

If you don't have your own website then it might be complicated.

In that case you can just send it to me at alexis.laliberte(a)enter-net.com

Based on the description and patent number, I didn't have much luck. The USPTO website found a match for that patent number, but there was no info available. If you are in the U.S. you might want to call them at 800-786-9199. Another option might be to call Schlitz, but I think that might be a long shot..

The picture isn't too clear but it looks like a good looking vintage draft system.
