Catalog No. (F7)
Pottery or stoneware, figural, 0.5L.
Text:
�Gut Heil!�
(Good health!)
The text �Gut Heil!� doesn�t translate particularly well into English, but is a German greeting typically associated with exercise and physical fitness. German beer, as represented by the barrel, is also considered to be a component of a healthy life style.
A special edition of this stein (below right) was made for the 7th German national gymnastics meet in Munich (�VII Deutsches Turnfest�), featuring a relief Munich Child on the front of the barrel, as well as the words �Gruss aus M�nchen� (Greetings from Munich). (Add 15% to prices below.)
These steins were produced by Merkelbach & Wick for distribution by Jakob Reinemann, a Munich dealer, and are typically bottom-marked �J. Reinemann/M�nchen.�
Price Range: $200-$300
