Cali,

I agree with Walt, number 1 appears to be a contemporary stein, probably with a lithophane in the bottom. Are there any markings on the bottom of the other three? Number four may be a Diesinger stein. The scene is Werner's farewell serenade from Der Trompeter von Säckingen (see the article in the Library section). The original engraving for this scene was done by C. Schweninger in 1888. The Diesinger catalog can be seen in The Beer Stein Library (see Links section). Membership is required to view that catalog.
