Authentic WWI Regimental German Beer Stein- Karl Theodor Colonel

  

Authentic WW1 German Beer Stein. Featuring Colonel Karl Theodore on the front.

Karl Theodore was born at Possenhofen Castle in 1839 to Duke Maxiilian Joseph and Princess Ludovika of Bavaria. He was a member of the House of Wittelsbach.

In 1866 he fought in the Austro-Prussian War and in 1870 he served as proprietary colonel of the 3rd Bavarian Light Horse Cavalry. He later became a famous eye surgeon (oculist) and opened 2 hospitals. He is featured on the front of the piece as well as the lithopane in the bottom of the mug when exposed to light.

The head of the rider is missing but no other faults are found. Some slight wearing of names consistent with age. An absolutely beautiful authentic piece to add to your collection.
