With limited time on my hands for my hobbies these days, I haven't posted in quite sometime. Last year, I purchased an interesting HB stein, which was numbered #1204. It is styled that I hadn't come across before or since. The stein body is etched with the trademarked Hofbrauhaus logo. What makes it different is that it is neatly etched in dark brown/black. The lid is the classic flat Kgl. HB lid with an acorn handle. Inside the lid the stein mark of W. Wild is present.<br />
<br />
W. Wild produced a number of HB steins of various styles in the 1880s and 1890s. A couple of this are usually characteristic of his HB steins. The all have the same style of lid (classic Kgl. HB trademarked logo), the HB on the body almost always has a little line through the middle of the H, and on the body there is usually just HB with no crown. This particular style of his is the only style that I have seen where the crown is placed above the HB on the body.<br />
<br />
My best estimate at a date for this stein would be in the 1890s. I am having a tough time pinpointng it more accurately than that. Wild appears to have been in business until 1898 when I believe the business was sold, and the stein mark on the inside is a very plain mark, rather than the more elaborate ones he used on some of the HB steins.<br />

The Hofbräuhaus HB Stein Registry is now online. I had been hoping to get it online for sometime, as it was time consuming, and difficult to update and send out in the old format. I came across The Collecting Bug website and it offered the perfect template for the registry, and it was free! So far I have managed to upload 190 of the steins that were in the registry, and I still have about 40 more to go, but the rest should be in shortly. The site makes it easy to update. You can check it out at the link below.<br />

When they started to mark their drinking vessels and other things with an HB some other competing breweries seemed to follow suit. In 1879 the Hofbrauhaus trademarked their logo to eliminate this. Even though the logo was trademarked other breweries still seemed to push the envelope creating logos that were still very similar, but obviously just different enough to get away with it. Below are a couple of images of steins from a competing brewery that I also initially believed belonged to the Hofbrauhaus, but in fact were from another brewery, proven in the postcard depicting the steins. I have seen a couple of these steins appear on eBay having an HB placed on it at some point by a previous owner, which in one case was apparent from the hinge which had been damaged during the lid switch, and the other pictured below did not have a picture that showed the back of the stein which would likely give evidence of whether or not a lid was switched. I would hazard a guess that either the stein had no lid to begin with or the lid was switched based on the fact that the HB is screened on which is something done on HB steins later than 1939 when the Hofbrauhaus no longer was known as the Kgl. Hofbrauhaus, but rather the Staatl. Hofbrauhaus.<br />

I was able to purchase the stein, but I have not been able to take a good look at it, since it is in transit. This style of HB stein seems to fall in between the more crudely etched HB steins with the trademarked logo on the lid and the stein featured in my "Bridging the Gap" post, that has a neatly etched blue HB on the body with no crown above it and the trademarked lid. Like these steins it has the trademarked logo on the lid, but the HB on the body has no crown above it and no colour. The style of the HB is slightly different than that of the one in the "Bridging the Gap" post. The stein however apparently has a stein mark by W.Wild as does the other two, but I have not seen it to determine which of his stein marks it is. I am not sure how many of this type of stein was produced, but it is the first one that I have encountered. It is numbered with the #8095, indicating it likely had seen use in the Hofbrauhaus. I am inclined to believe that the stein likely dates from in between 1888 and 1895.<br />

This poses the dilemma to those of us who collect these steins of whether or not to try and obtain a stein in each of the different styles the Hofbrauhaus produced, or whether or not to collect each different variation. The latter is very daunting task. As you can see from the photos below, the differences in variation are often very subtle. These differences however are also interesting, because they may also enable a more accurate dating for the steins.<br />
<br />
In the first picture you see three HB steins from my collection that at quick glance seem to be almost identical. When you look more closely at the pictures of each of the lids individually, you can see that on stein #5643 the circle the HB is found within is sunken inside the outer ring and the HB is embossed outward from it. The hinge on this stein has 5 rings, and on the inside of the lid is an early stein mark from Ludwig Mory. This would make the steins age date from likely between 1889-1895. My guess would be likely 1889 or 1890. The next stein #1163 has a circle where the HB is found that is level with the outer ring that defines it. You can also see there are slight differences in the outer rings. This stein has a 3 ring hinge and is older than the last one. There is no maker's mark and the HB etched into the body of the stein is pretty crudely carved. This stein likely dates from the late 1870s. The third stein #1810 is similar to the last one in that it has a circle where the HB is found that is level with the outer ring that defines it, but the outer ring is wider than in the last stein. This stein has a five ring hinge. This stein is mostly likely from either the late-1870s or the early-1880s. The fourth stein pictured #432, is one that appeared a few months ago on eBay. The differences in this steins lid are more apparent than the previous three steins. Although the style is the same, the centre area where the HB is found is much smaller than on the other ones and the number is larger. It is very similar to #1163 in that has a circle where the HB is found that is level with the outer ring that defines it, and in the style of outer ring. The photos posted did not show the hinge, but I would hazard a guess that it would be a 3 ring hinge. The HB on the stein body was very crudely carved. I would guess without being able to examine the stein more closely that it dates from the 1870s and is perhaps slightly older than #1163.<br />
<br />
This is just one of a number of examples found in HB steins of how there can be small variances within the various styles of HB steins.<br />

Since I have been fortunate enough to find a few more steins to add to my collection lately I decided to update the pictures of what I currently have in my HB stein collection. My main focus is on the early numbered HB steins that would have been used in the Hofbrauhaus, rather than the variant steins that they would occasionally put out. The first two pictures are of 1L steins that range in date from 1875-1890, with the exception of the one in the center on the bottom row which pre-dates 1872 and could likely be from the late-1860s. The third photo includes two steins that are similar that are like from between 1890-1906, as well as the stein featured in my last post that has the tobacco advertisement inside the lid, and a 0.5L stein that has a unique lid with the trademarked logo with the words Schutz-Marke. It age could be as early as 1879, but is uncertain for sure. The last picture includes steins that are post-1900, one of which is accompanied by an original sales receipt for the stein from the Hofbrauhaus. I also have accumulated about 50 unlidded HB steins that range in date from 1900 onward. They were the first HB steins I purchased from antique stores and garage sales before I focused my collection on the antique lidded steins. I am trying to add different variations of pre-1900 steins to my collection, preferably that are numbered. All but two of the steins pictured are numbered.</div>

Pictured is a fairly uncommon HB stein that I recently picked up. It most likely dates from early-1900, and bears the marking of CH. Reck from Munich (in business circa. 1893-1930) on the side of the stem just below the hinge, as can be see in the last photo. The lid is pewter with what appears to be porcelain in the centre bearing the HB logo. On the inside of the lid, is the advertisement for Regie Virginier; which is a toabacco company I believe in Austria. I have seen a handful of HB steins in this style and a couple of them have slight variations from the one that I have.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672155565613473159.post-81664254796778181542014-08-30T22:33:00.000-04:002014-08-30T22:35:50.116-04:00Bridging the Gap<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since I had started collecting HB steins, I had always really liked this particular style of HB stein. I recently was able to add one to my collection. It is an interesting stein, since it is seems to be the style that bridged the gap between the early HB steins that were crudely etched, and the ones that bear the trademarked logo on the body that we are all familiar with. The trademarked logo can be found on the lid, but the stein bares just the HB on the body. I don't believe this style of stein was manufactured for very long making them somewhat uncommon. All of the ones that I have encountered seem to bare the mark of Munich's W.Wild on the inside of the lid. This style of HB stein in all likelihood dates from somewhere in between the late-1880s and early-1890s.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672155565613473159.post-7583159974522207492014-08-20T03:21:00.001-04:002014-08-20T03:28:17.897-04:00My Holy Grail of HB Steins<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>A couple of years ago, while conversing on the Stein Talk forum at Stein Collectors International, one of the members of the forum told me about an HB stein that he had seen that bore the measure of the Bavarian Mass rather than the Litre. Why is this significant you may ask? It is significant, because when Germany was unified in 1871, they converted to the metric system of measure, thus the Bavarian Mass was replaced by the Litre. The Mass is equal to 1.069 litres, so when the conversion was made the customer would receive slightly less beer for their money. What is significant to me the collector is that a stein bearing the M for the measure denotes that the stein was made prior to 1871 (which is very old in terms of HB steins), and most likely made in the 1860s. As strictly an HB stein collector, a Pre-1871 HB stein is to me the Holy Grail of beer steins, and the stein that I had most desired. </b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>I have been fortunate enough to come across one, and add it to my own collection. The stein pictured below is # 806. It bears a 3 ringed hinge, which were believed to be circa 1875, but appears here on an evidently earlier stein than that. The lid is flat with an acorn thumb lift, and an engraved B on the top, as well as the stein #806. The body is combed with an incised HB, and there are no apparent maker's marks. The lid is fastened to the body soundly with no loose hinges that might indicate that the lid was a replacement or from a later date than the stein body. The gentleman whom the stein was purchased from indicated that in his 30+ years of collecting Munich Brewery Steins it was the only one bearing the Bavarian Mass that he had ever seen, and I personally had never seen one where the measure is **clearly visible** to confirm its age. Below are some pictures of the stein.</b></span><br />

Dan has managed to accumulate a number of numbered HB steins of different variations. One of which is a very tough to find HB stein with the Hofbrauhaus Keller lid that dates from the 1870s. In his collection are also a number of other pre-1900 steins. His is definitely a collection worth showing off, and one to be proud of.</span></strong><br />

Just picked up an interesting numbered HB stein that is different from other HB steins I have in my collection or have seen before. I am not sure the exact age of the stein, but I would hazard a guess that it is most likely from the 1880's. The number on the lid of the stein is number 65. The stein is a 1/2 Litre in size, and does not feature the typical etched HB on the body of the stein, but has the trademarked HB logo on the lid. What is most interesting about the stein, is the lid. The lid has the HB logo with the crown above, which places the stein at 1879 or later, which is when the logo was trademarked, but rather than bearing the typical Kgl. Hof-braeuhaus Muenchen script around the logo. It simply says Hofbraeuhaus Muenchen. What is unique to this stein is also that is also has the words SCHUTZ MARKE as part of the logo. This is something that is unique and that I haven`t seen before on an antique HB stein. This leads me to believe that this stein could possibly be from shortly after the logo was trademarked, and before they included the Kgl. Hof-Braeuhaus Muenchen as the script around the logo. At this point I am just hypothesizing about the age, but intrigued to find out more about the stein and its age.</div>

Recently I came across an interesting article titled: Der bayerische Masskrug und das bayerische Bier, written by Siegfried Rübensaal. The article title translated is The Bavarian Beer Stein and Bavarian Beer. It delves into the history of Bavarian steins providing valuable insight and information on the steins of a number of Bavarian breweries. What I found that was of particular interest to me was the section of the article that talked about the transition of the standard unit of measure from the Bavarian Mass to the Litre, and also, the bits of the article that talked specifically about HB steins. Although HB steins were not the focus of the article, it there were was a very interesting piece of information that I was not aware of before. Siegfried stated that the Hofbraeuhaus began mark their steins on the body by etching in the HB around 1860. Previously I had been aware that HB marked steins pre-dated the transition from the Bavarian Mass to the Litre, but had know idea how long before. This valuable piece of information indicates that there was roughly a 10 year period where HB steins could have been manufactured with the Bavarian Mass rather than the Litre. In the article there was also a picture of one such stein (above). The picture was not of high enough resolution to get a good look at the measure markings, or detailed features of the stein, but it nonetheless gives a glimpse as to what an HB stein from the 1860's looked like.<br />
The article is written in German, but with the use of Google Translate, much of what is written is understandable. The article is a good read and valuable resource for information for those interested in Bavarian steins, especially brewery steins. Check it out. If anyone reading this knows of a means to conatct the author of the article; Siegfried Rübensaal, please e-mail me at the address provided on the blog. I would like to get in touch with him to ask him further information about the pictured stein, and any other knowledge he might have about early HB steins.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672155565613473159.post-70662283381775342552013-02-10T10:46:00.001-05:002013-02-10T10:49:24.482-05:00HB Stein #5643 -Recent Addition To My Collection<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I recently added an old HB stein which is #5643 to my collection. It dates from the late-1870's to mid- 1880's. It has a flat lid with the HB on the lid without the crown above it, and an acorn thumblift. The body has a crudely etched HB, is combed, and has the measure on the front. I haven't yet received it in the mail, but will post more pictures when it arrives.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672155565613473159.post-5868704741025490922013-01-20T16:43:00.000-05:002013-01-20T16:43:00.837-05:00HB Keg Top<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The most recent addition to my HB collection is a unique item. It is the top of a HB keg used at the Hofbrauhaus. It dates from after 1939 (Says Staatl. Hofbrauhaus rather than Kgl.), but I am not sure from exactly when. It bears the number 2096, and is 31cm in diameter. This is a nice consolation to the kegs that were sold last year on eBay, but were unavailable to Canada.<br />

Although I didn't purchase the steins, I saved pictures of the steins. Below is a pictorial of the majority of the HB Oktoberfest steins in between the years 1982 and 2012. The years that are missing are: 1983, 1990, 1996, 2001, 2007 and 2012. Sorry, I tried to get the pictures to line up in order, but it wouldn't seem to work.<br />

In many instances the engraving coincides with when the stein was made and is a reliable means to date the stein. In some cases however, the engravings on the steins are much later than the date when the stein was produced and first saw usage. What the date on an engraving can definitely tell you is the latest possible age of a stein. Below is an example of a stein that I just purchased that has an engraving on the inside of the lid, that is far later than the date when the stein was produced. The makers mark on the stein, which is partially engraved over, indicates that the stein was made by W. Wild, whom from my research made HB steins in the 1880's. The crude way that the HB is etched is also indicative of an HB stein from the 1880's and not something that was done in the late 1890's. The engraving on the stein bears the name P.Kröber E.Friedrich and the date Easter 1898. It is likely that this stein was a gift, or perhaps passed down to the person whose name is engraved, by the original owner of the stein.<br />

Below are a few old Hofbräuhaus related photos that I have come across online that all seem to tell their own story about what the great beer hall was like in the past. The first picture is apparently of legendary Hofbräuhaus server Anni Popp. The second is of two servers with their hands full. The third and fourth pictures show life inside the beer hall circa. 1897. The fifth and sixth photos show the interior of the Hofbräuhaus, and the last photo shows the exterior of the Hofbräuhaus in 1895.<br />

According to Walter <span class="main"><span style="background-color: white;">Mück, who has written a book on Munich brewery steins <span style="color: #3d85c6;">(" Historische Bierkrüge Münchner Brauereien" which you can buy on his site)</span>, t</span></span>he numbers on the lid were to keep track of the inventory of steins. If a stein got broken, which many did they would issue a new stein with the number, or if they needed more inventory they would make a new range of numbers. His insight explains why you may see a very low number on what is obviously a newer stein than some with higher numbers that are clearly older. Steins with a particular number may have been broken several times and replaced over and over in the inventory. I would imagine also that the numbers would help the people serving the beer, identify which customer had which stein. The highest number on a stein that I have encountered is # 28,670. <br />
<br />
At some point, the Hofbräuhaus made numbered steins available for purchase, as well as using them strictly for inventory. The evidence that suggests this is that a few numbered steins have surfaced that have original sales receipts. I imagine that once a stein was sold, that particular number would be out of circulation and would not be remade. The earliest HB stein with it's original receipt dates from 1898. Ron Gray the owner of the stein wrote and artiucle about it. The link to the article is <a href="http://www.steincollectors.org/steinmo/2004/HB.html">http://www.steincollectors.org/steinmo/2004/HB.html</a>. The latest one I have come across is dated from 1914. That means for at least 16 years numbered steins were available for purchase. It is unknown whether or not there was a certain criteria to able to purchase your own numbered stein. Perhaps they were only sold to regular longtime patrons (like the stein lockers there today), or maybe there was no restriction and anyone was able to purchase them. I am yet to see in over 100 numbered steins, a duplicate. That doesn't mean there isn't any, with close to 30,000 numbers having been issued. There is no archive at the Hofbräuhaus anymore, so many of the questions that could have easily been answered at this time cannot be.<br />
<br />
If you have a numbered HB Stein, I have compiled an HB Stein Registry that is cataloguing numbered HB steins. The registry is sent out each month to those that contribute.<br />
<br />
Below is pictured the HB stein in my own collection that still has the receipt. It was purchased in 1912.<br />

Recently on eBay a chair from the Hofbräuhaus was auctioned. Unfortunately the seller wouldn't ship to Canada, or I would have tried to buy it for sure. It went for an unbelievably low price. I imagine the shipping would have been quite high though. You can see from the two pictures that were in the listing that the chair has a lot of character and would pretty cool in any mancave or bar area.</div>

These 2 steins are the latest additions to my HB Stein Collection. They date from 1890's and are both numbered. The steins were made by Ludwig Mory (as seen in the picture) who was a popular maker in Munich, and whose business is still operational today by his descendants. The imprint on the body of the stein is to my knowledge the first style of HB Stein that had HB with the crown. Earlier styles had either just an etched HB or a crudely carved HB, but no crown.</div>

Hofbräuhaus and hence forth was known as the Staatliches (Staatl.) Hofbräuhaus. Many HB enthusiasts believed this switch occurred after World War I, when the nation ceased to be ruled by the Kaiser, as did I, but in e-mail correspondence with the Hofbräuhaus they told me that it wasn't until 1939 when the change in title was made. In the two 350th Anniversary steins below, pictured is the last Kgl. Hofbräuhaus stein and the first Staatl. Hofbräuhaus stein. Thus, any Hofbräuhaus stein with a Staatl. is post-1939.<br />

A new addition to my HB collection was a Hofbraeuhaus ring that was brought over to North America as a veteran bring back from WWII. I know very little other than that about the ring. I am curious to know whether a lot of them were produced, or only a few. I am trying to seek additional information about it, but have been unable to locate anything as of yet. If anyone has any information about these rings, I would welcome the additional information.<br />

Sorry for the length of time since the last blog entry. Every effort will be made to update it regularly in the new year. The HB Stein Registry for the month of December was just e-mailed out to those who have subscribed by submitting numbered HB steins or other rare steins issued by the Hofbraeuhaus. The registry now includes over 100 numbered steins that include pictures and descriptions. The registry is a great way for HB stein collectors to get into contact with like-minded collectors. The steins submited to the registry are also helping to fuel my research on HB steins, with a particular focus on being able to accurately date the steins and document how they have evolved over the years. Please feel free to submit your numbered HB steins to the registry. They can be submitted to <a href="mailto:jordanvandenberg@hotmail.com">jordanvandenberg@hotmail.com</a>.<br />

Three of the steins I believe date from the 1870s (Hofbrauhaus Keller lids and the HB only lid) and one from the 1880s (the one with the trademark HB crown logo on the lid which was trademarked in 1879).Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-672155565613473159.post-28259857568265262492012-01-07T14:53:00.000-05:002012-01-07T14:53:22.042-05:002 Really Cool Non-HB Finds at a Local Antique Store<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKpQ-lsTtP41z7G_vA8lgYr6Peys4W0jc_H0aarZ40SOuMeOsRJzLwHEELR1ELwBCp6Dy410Whvhhm6cRlWpKFvs2iZ9YmFH0KY2ZORpItjjnnttY_ZoJCFaqq4l4uWlVlR6oQ2wjExy5l/s1600/DSC01857.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" rea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKpQ-lsTtP41z7G_vA8lgYr6Peys4W0jc_H0aarZ40SOuMeOsRJzLwHEELR1ELwBCp6Dy410Whvhhm6cRlWpKFvs2iZ9YmFH0KY2ZORpItjjnnttY_ZoJCFaqq4l4uWlVlR6oQ2wjExy5l/s320/DSC01857.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br />

One is a Lowenbrau Keller stein that is numbered 50,630 and the other is an Augustinerbrau stein. They both have combed bodies and a ball thumblift. If anyone knows any further information on the steins it would be welcome.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
