I have seen brand new looking mugs with the same design being sold in Poland.

Since this beer hall was in existence for a long period of time, I would assume they had multiple styles of steins over the years. Is there a way to tell from which timeframe any particular stein was in use?

I have a copy of Stars and Strips from 1945 that shows GIs drinking beer out of the ceramic Steins pictured in 1945.

I have 3 of them. One is marked .4L with the recessed bottom. The other two are half liter with different markings. All are made by the same maker.

Nice steins shown here.
Of the 3 steins Bob is showing, im pretty sure the right one with the 0.5l is a modern stein.
The originals should have the big "L" and no small "l" ..there are also diffrences in the pewter lid and the writing.

Here is another modern example.

Usually the originals steins are still available and sell for 30-50€

The makers mark is of "Merkelbach & Wick"

if anyone knows anywhere an original for sale, i'd very much apreciate a pm.

The recessed bottom is in the middle. Perhaps they gave the short size to the godless commies who stopped by.

I kinda have a fantasy that Hitler sipped beer from my stein on the night of the 8th of Nov 1923.
