This relief stein probably by Marzi & Remy has an inscription at the upper lip "Gewidmet von den Kriegern von 1870/71 zur Erinnerung an der silberne Hochzeit 1899" (Given by the soldiers of 1870/71 in remembrance on the silver (25th anniversary) celebration 1899). This stein was a present to a military railroad person that had served for Germany in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71 and is ca. 1899. | |
Mit Volldampf voraus allzeit treu für Kaiser und Reich. |
With full steam ahead always true to Emperor and Empire. |
