Close up of mark inside lid - upside down - see next close up picture

Inside lid is shiny and clean - no damage anywhere

According to SCI, this is a “very rare” ink stamp of MERKLEBACH & WICK, GRENZHAUSEN, B. COBLENZ (Dark Green Ink Stamp)

Right side up mark on inside of lid??? I see the MUNCHEN, but not sure about the top and middle words?

There are so many rich sources on the history of this stein’s brewery: Bürgerliches Brauhaus München.

I will continue to add links as I read through them all. But for now, here are 3 links to enjoy:

Note: Incredible history in the 2nd link.

Makes me wonder whether this steinkrug was served with beer during the historic events of the period. I’ll never know, but I am lucky to hold another piece of history that must be preserved, shared, and enjoyed.

Based on what I have read so far, I am guessing this stein was produced before December 28, 1921, when the Bürgerliche Brauhaus was merged with Löwenbräu. Also, since it has the Merklebach & Wick, Grenzhausen, B. Coblenz ink stamp, no later than 1921 makes sense.

There is an engraved stamp on the inside of the lid but I cannot make it out.

***** If anyone has more specific information, including specific date, the stamp on inside of lid, etc., I’d love to hear it. Danke!

I think there’s much more to discover about this one!!!
