German Beer Stein & Bierstiefel Group — Hofbräuhaus, Schmitt & Sohn, New Glarus
A four-piece grouping of German and German-style drinking vessels spanning stoneware steins and tall ceramic and glass Weizen/Bierstiefel forms. Includes a cobalt salt-glaze relief stein marked "Olympia Beer Tumwater" with raised scrollwork and edelweiss banding; a cream-glazed 1-liter Hofbräuhaus München mug with the Bavarian HB crest, lions, and hops, retaining its "Made in Germany" foil sticker and accompanied by an HB Certificate of Authenticity; a tall cobalt-and-cream footed Weizen-style cup transfer-printed "Old Germany / Deutschland" with the Imperial eagle; and a clear pressed-glass lidded Weizen boot-form with the "Original Bierzug" Brewer's dray-horse transfer, hinged 95% Zinn pewter lid stamped for New Glarus Brewing Co. "Drink Indigenous" (Wisconsin).
