Believe it or not there ar lots of collectors out there that collect beer labels!

Here's a couple of sites to help you:

Kamm's History under Mishawaka listed in the Brewers of Indiana Guild site  http://www.brewersofindianaguild.com/History/IndianaHistoryNorth.html (http://www.brewersofindianaguild.com/History/IndianaHistoryNorth.html)

The International Society for Label Collectors and Brewery Research (Labologists' Society), established in 1958, is one of the world's oldest organizations dedicated to the hobby of label collecting. The primary goal of the society is to promote the hobby and provide information on label collecting, breweries, and related subjects.  Unfortunately there isn't a collectors society per say in US.
