I couldn't resist buying the stein. It is indeed a Brauerei zum Munchener Kindl stein of the yellowish ceramic that I think is called Elfenbein. The hinge is marked Pauson and Munchen. I believe it is print over glaze with hand highlighting. I was hoping to identify the stein manufacturer by the distinctive capacity mark but there is no exact match on the David Harr page and several look rather similar. It is 0.3L but looks a bit bigger because it has a raised bottom. Not enough for a music box but enough to make it look more like a 0.5 liter stein which I suppose was the intent, unless there is some other advantage to the design.
