Here\'s a big beautiful German beer stein by Gerz. This stein was made between 1890 and 1920 and is definitely pre- WWII.
It is about 18\" tall.The 3L stein is in beautiful condition and is clean, without any chips or cracks. If you need more pictures please let me know! The trademark is on the bottom of the stein. On the stein it says, \"Jägerblut ist wohlgemut.” (Hunter’s blood is cheerful.) Besides the handle it says the model number \"3262.\"More information:
Simon Peter Gerz founded in 1862 and later known as Gerz GmbH, was the worldwide most famous beer stein producing company to rise up out of the Hoehr-Grenzhausen Kannenbäcker region. In 1999 the company closed down and the trademark GERZ was sold to the company DOMEX.
Simon Peter Gerz I was born on September 13, 1830 in Hoehr.
After an exhibition in Wiesbaden in 1864, where they won a gold medal, Simon Peter Gerz was named “Hoflieferant,” or supplier to the court of the Duke of Nassau. In 1867 they exhibited in Paris, where they again won a gold medal. Over the next 30 years, business was good and everyone prospered. In 1872, Gerz invested 31,447 Marks in a “clay cutter,” a mill for processing the raw material into a usable product. In 1874 there were two factory buildings and two kilns. In 1880 and 1883 more factory space was added. Despite these large investments, or perhaps because of them, when his first wife passed away after 25 years of marriage, they had accumulated a personal fortune of 189,116 Marks. Today’s equivalent purchasing power would amount to 1.6 million Dollars. Then, on September 12, 1893, at 63 years of age, Simon Peter Gerz passed away, leaving no male heir.
