There was an article in Februarys 2021 Prosit by Roy D Selms about Michael steins. This character stein of Michael is about 7-1/2" tall and has a closed pewter hinge. To me the handle looks like the one on a Funnel man #194 by Fritz Thenn from the Regensburg factory. This stein doesn't have a capacity, makers mark, or mold number. He has both hands in his pockets and a knife in his right rear pocket. There might be some kind of drinking vessel in his left top pocket.
