Hi. I'm having trouble identifying a stein mug of my husbands. I've found something similar online ( http://www.kaiserbills.com/item121057.ctlg ) but nothing exactly what we have. On ours, the word "Romer" is written in white above and to the left of the city hall and it says "Frankfurta.M." underneath. There are two "posts" either side of the city hall with "rope" arches from post to post and around the back to the handle. The flowers are similar, but not exactly the same. They are either side of the handle.

The only markings I can make out on the base is an impression of a 5 and the number 7 painted in red. There is another "symbol" type marking, but I cannot make sense of it. There are no other markings that I can see anywhere.

Is it a stein or is it a reproduction?

If anyone is interested in helping me I am happy to email photographs to aid in identification.

Thank you!
