Pottery, transfer and etched, 0.5L, inlaid lid, signed by M. Hein.
Text:
�Hopfen u. Malz, Gott erhalt�s.�
(Hops and malt, may God preserve them.)
The hexagram decoration on the lid, often mistaken to be the Jewish Star of David, is actually a German brewing symbol seen frequently on beer steins produced through the early 20th century.
This stein can be found both with and without the dates �1886� and �1911� in white banners on either side of the portrait, commemorating the New York City brewery�s 25th anniversary.
Price Range: $100-$150
