Some very nice and never seen before examples, 133.R !

I see you are missing the Heeresgruppe Rupprecht ones from 1918.

Very nice, the grey steins with blue letters were all made in German occupied Belgium allegedly, in Leuze-en-Hainaut near Tournai.

You understand that from time to time you need to test them all together with beer contents. The test only works if within the day you drink the max filling (mark should be visible) of each Krug.

Great stuff!

Things like these have become quite rare and expensive.

Ah the Fußartillerie needs additional beer. They were the frontline artillerists. The more beer the better the impact results.

Really excellent - thank you for sharing. For a while I sought after photographs of German soldiers drinking beer as a bit of a theme in my photograph collection. I will have to have a look if I have any showing this type. If I recall correctly most of them are more ornately decorated.

Thank you again for sharing your excellent collection.

A fantastic collection and a beautiful cabinet in the last photo. I presume the Bavarian 0,5l were used at breakfast :)

I just saw this thread and this set of photos - I love that little blue mug from Ersatz-Bataillon / Pionier-Bataillon 22 (Riesa), as it's specifically Saxon and even has the 'pick and shovel' emblem of the Saxon Pioniere.  :)
