LB&C "Leopold Bauernfreund & Co" of Munich specialized in elaborately designed character steins. Sourced largely from the stoneware manufacturer Hauber & Reuther of Freising. These were painted and fitted with pewter lids by Bauernfreund, and they never had mold numbers. There are no HR marks on these steins, only LB&C. But the capacity mark with the serif at the top of the L is present and the "geseztlich geschutst" mark is the same size and font as that used on some HR stoneware steins. They bought many different stein bodies from H&R. This is about 9" tall.
“Der Geist einmal herauf beschworen, läßt seine Folgen bald erkennen, den Opfern die er sich erkoren, an Dingen, die wir Affen, Kater nennen.”
(Once the spirit has been summoned, soon makes the consequences known, the victims he has chosen, of things that we monkeys call tomcats.)
