I can give you some of the information. The numbers you see near the top of the steins are capacity marks, showing how much beer the stein will hold. A half liter (0.5L) is very common. The one with the cat under the man is a scene from "The Trumpeter of Säkkingen" as painted by Carl Schweninger Jr. and stein produced by Adolf Diesinger. The value is $75-100 based on the Beer Stein Library. What you see as S and C interlocked is S and G, and stands for Gilles & Sons. The 2029 is by Marzi & Remy valued $20-30, again per the Beer Stein Library, but it should be 0.5L not 2.5L. "Immer lustig, immer durstig" means "Always cheerful, always thirsty." Maybe someone else can fill in the missing pieces.
