My family has had this for quite some time now. I was told it was in San Francisco and survived the 1906 earthquake. I'm really not sure how old it is. Thank you for checking.Â

Re: Antique Beer Stein
If it's marked "Germany" it will generally postdate 1891, there is probably a company marking under the music box that would indicate a maker and possibly a date. The steins with music boxes though do tend to date later than the San Francisco earthquake.
Re: Antique Beer Stein
Does the A 410 stamp mean anything?
Re: Antique Beer Stein
It's probably just a model/mold number, most steins will have such numbers on them.
