Stein:DBGM Swiss Movement West Germany Lidded Stein

DBGM…. Swiss Movement…. West Germany…. Lidded Stein. Marked “West Germany” on handle and also marked inside lid “DBGM..60”. It is also embossed above the lid along the rim with “1/4 ltr”. This lovely West Germany Lidded Stein measures approximately 9″ high (including lid) x 4″ wide (bottom base). The stein has lovely sharp colors and detail, including peach lusterware around top and bottom scalloped base. There is also a bottom border of cherubs and the main picture depicts a man and woman outside with the woman carrying buckets in her hand. There are 2 messages “Macht Nie Lebens Mud”! & “Bier Liebund Lied”! The lid looks to be pewter, but not certain! It is nice and shiny with no tarnishing and there is a pattern within the lid. The lid sits nicely on top; however, if you depress the “thumb holder” portion, it is a little “wobbly”. My research shows that this originally was a musical stein, with a music box being on the bottom; however, if you flip the stein over, you can see that there was one there, but it has been removed. There are no nicks, chips or cracks. This is a great collectible piece in good, used condition.
