This work is the result of the loving efforts of Les
Hopper (1927-2003), an SCI Master Steinologist, winner of the Jack Heimann
Service Award, past President of SCI, founder of the Bayou Stein Verein, and our
very own 'Gator. He compiled the booklet "1001 German Beer Stein
Translations," "The Index to Prosit" (including Supplement),
"Beer Stein Marks, A Supplement to Prosit," and several editions of
the SCI Membership Directory. He was a prolific author, contributing many
articles to Prosit, with special favor shown to Diesinger, Girmscheid, and
artist Karl (Kilian) Beuler. Les was a most diligent and generous contributor to
our hobby. |
