German Pre WWI, Reservist Regimental Stein, Hesse Lifeguard Regiment 115, 1907-1909
Item #66115 : Original era manufacture. Fine quality porcelain stein of a type purchased by a soldier at the end of his compulsory 2 year enlistment. This one is named to Gefreiter Hahn who served in the Hesse Lifeguard 115th Infantry Regiment in the years 1907-1909. Quite likely he was called up for active service in August 1914. The stein stands 12.5 inches in height, with a lithopane bottom and a decorative pewter lid. The stein is very sound, no cracks or chips, however the soldier finial is missing his right hand which once held a miniature stein. Otherwise a very handsome looking 115 year old bier stein.
