Excellent. (N/A). A superb item. Amazing work and artistry that went into these Villeroy & Boch steins. Date mark on the base for 1890 so seems to have been made then to ship to America for the 25th anniversary of the Hell Gate Brewery in 1891. Minor marks around. Sticker mark to the front top. Brilliant detail. Wonderful piece of brewing history. Estimate: $200-400
