It is polite to say "Auf dein Wohl", of course. But this gentleman seems a bit more selfcentered, saying "Auf mei' Wohl" ('to MY health'..).
A half liter pottery stein, made by the company Merkelbach & Wick, probably around 1890.
Transfer-printed decoration of a man holding a beer stein and the phrase "Auf mei' Wohl" underneath it. Some white details handpainted.
Nice dark patinated pewter lid. Lid strap marked NBM for pewterer Nathan Bauernfreund in Munich.
