This ca. post WWII, light-relief stein appears to be a tribute to the famous Johannes Gutenberg (1397 - 1468) born in Mainz, Germany. His illustrious career included the invention of movable type printing (1440) in Strasbourg (now in France) and the printing of the famous Gutenberg Bible in 1455 and much more. | |
