There has been some discussion in the past (in certain circles) that Girmscheid only produced character as a very late item rather than in the early 1900's. Here is an example of an older stein for further discussion: Ebay #350193453138 Note the difference in the bottom markings from the style of the later character steins from Girmscheid. I'm not really a character stein collector, but I have a few. This is just topic of discussion for those who are.. -Jody http://cgi.ebay.com/GIRMSCHEID-757-Tree-Radish-Man-Stein-Germany-RARE_W0QQitemZ350193453138QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAntiques_Decorative_Arts?hash=item350193453138&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A3%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A49
