This is a historical piece that commemorates the Liège, Belgium,1905 World Fair. Based on note left inside the stein, this one came from the Liège “Münchner Haus” beer tent representing Germany.
I welcome and appreciate any additional information. Thanks.

Twenty-nine countries officially participated, including the United States. 7 million visitors attended this world fair. Interestingly, Germany and Spain were unofficial participants.
