Since I don't have an online place to put my photograph, you can see it at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=3752499698&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT
This is NOT an effort to get anyone to bid on my item, i'm providing the URL just so someone can look at the photographs and read the description and measurements of the pieces.
One member here was gracious enough to help me via email, but he suggested I come to you good folks for additional assistance.
I searched this set every way I could think of to search, both in books at the local library and via every internet reference (or near reference) i could find, and even emailed the gentleman who directed me here, but i cannot find enough information about this set.
I was making a guess at the age being '40s or '50s, but the SteinCollectors.com member that assisted me told me that it might well be much older than that. He was able to tell me that it was a Rumtopf, rather than the 'hot wine set' that I guessed it to be.
I would be very grateful if any of you could educate me about my set. I love the set and it won't hurt my feelings any if it doesn't sell ~ i just want to (a) represent the item more correctly and (b) solve a mystery for myself.
Thank you, in advance, for any assistance! And, by the way, this is a really great website!!
