Vintage - German Stamped Hannes & Wienigner Beer Tankard

German Stamped Hannes & Wienigner Beer Tankard

Ornate detailing on the lid with a very nicely done “Bronzed” (but not bronze!) lid insert to go with the stein.

Translation on the lid roughly is: Honor is our motto, song the banner, Deed (achievement) our word, God our hoard (treasure).

Some interesting facts we have found out so far...

• The company was founded in 1840, as a porcelain decorating shop by Joseph Hannes (porcelain decorator) & Anton Wieninger (lithographer / decorator).
• In 1845 they were at Schommergasse 1a, 3rd floor (renamed Adolf-Kolping-Straße in 1946), then in 1850, were located at Lerchenstraße 12, 3rd floor.
  
• Sometime after 1872 the business moved to Luitpoldstraße 11.
• The company was liquidated in 1932.
