    Description

    Hello,
    This offer is for a matched (identical) PAIR (2 mugs) of 1904 St. Louis World's Fair beer mugs/steins,
    Made in Germany for export, they are marked in English on the bottom, "Made in Germany".
    Each mug is 5 -1/2" tall and 3 -3/4" across the base.
    Other than a little expected wear on the glazed BLUE trim lines (as pictured in the photos), there are NO chips or cracks on either mug.   BOTH have blue trim.   Each has identical pink flowers and green leaves (Roses) flanking the main logo:
    "Souvenier, World's Greatest Fair, St. Louis 1904"
    Inside each bottom is a molded, translucent image of "Machinery Hall" from one of the exhibit buildings.
    This was intended to be seen in the light as one raised the bottom of the mug to quaff the last drop of beer.
    Nice matched set in truly remarkable condition.   Other similar mugs have RED trim and other specific logos.
    This same mug is pictured in Kovel's "Top 8 Souveniers That Can Go Up In Value"
    Thank you
