more junk...as Avril calls it
« on: October 15, 2012, 05:47:42 am »
I, just love Mondays....for some its Oh, No,..the start of another working week,....but for us retirees..its another day for the charity shop troll,...and as you can see,i,ve been busy....got these 3 German Bier Steins..the small one is a glazed pottery one...with a nice relief finish..with Koln am Rhein on it ...with Western Germany on the base...which indicates that it was made between 1945 and 1989..the one in the middle...is a modern one with transfer printed scenes of Amberg...which is a small town in Bayern.or Bavaria as its called outwith Germany....it has 2006 on the front...The large one with the lid, is again from Amberg...this one has a rough glaze finish which tells me it is not a transfer....the lid has 95% zinn stamped on it, and the back stamp is from a manufacturer in Bavaria...i paid £10 for all three,...I am going to Baptize the big one tonight...with some nice Weiser bier....
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

Someday you'll have to give us a visual/virtual tour of the wull/avril digs! I'm sure it's filled with fascinating things.
