Description: “Munich Child & Charles Zoller lid” Mold No. NAGerman ceramic, relief, 1/2 L, pewter lid.Text Reads, "Wohl bekomm’s" & Translates to "To Your Health"by Merkelbach & WickCondition & Description: Overall an excellent condition specimen, only minor knock is a tiny fleabite at bottom edge and some crazing (fleabite shown in last pic, exactly as pictured). This Merkelbach & Wick stein has yet to be cataloged in the Beer Stein Library. The pewter lid, in tremendous detail, depicts Munich & the Bavaria statue which is a woman that represents the female personification of the Bavarian homeland and a lion - symbolic of strength, courage and loyalty - a very important symbol to the people of Bavaria . Finally, there is english text on the lid, "Compliments of Chas. Zoller 1904 Co." Charles (Chas.) Zoller operated a furniture store from 1886 to 1908 in Rochester NY, thus the stein was given out during that period, likely as a form of advertising... Interestingly enough Charles Zoller left the furniture business in 1908 to pursue his true passion, photography, and in particular autochromes. He played a big role in bringing autochromes to the US. This is a fun and historically curious stein! Dimensions: Height: ~6.4" tall from base to top of thumblift. Width: ~3.7" at the base. On the subject of shipping and handling, I have a 100% success rate(knock on wood) with the steins I have packed and shipped arriving to their new homes in perfect condition. This stein will be well packed and shipped fully insured, USPS priority. Also, please note I am always more than willing to combine shipping. Let me know if you have any questions and thank you for looking.
