Whoever made these steins continued to say just plain Germany even on the ones clearly dated 1956. I don't think it was ever law that they had to say West Germany or Western Germany. Each Germany claimed to be the real Germany. The west and east was just used whenever it seemed helpful for the English speaking market.
