The Germans continued to think of themselves as Germans even after 1949. Sometimes items were marked "West Germany" "Western Germany" or "W. Germany" but it was optional. In 1974 it was made a legal requirement to distinguish West German products from GDR (East German); but, even then there was no real enforcement.
