For our Australia compatriots - some local (Victorian) op-shop finds:

Most of the finds are tankards or wine goblets. None of the picture frames that our North American cousins speak off. I can't see the attraction of pewter for wine or beer - for wine give me glass and for beer glass or pottery would be preferable to pewter.
