Cold War Stein

Aus die Sammlung von Randy Satterfield

The front of the stein has the insignia of the 4th Infantry Division. Below that the stein is named to Lt.Col. Wes Franklin. On the left side is a painting or a deer (stag). On the right side is a painting of a grey bearded man smoking a pipe in traditional German garb in a wilderness setting. Presumably this is the Lt.Col.Both the lid and thumblift have relief images of deer. It seems that the Lt.Col. was either an avid hunter or a wildlife enthusist, three images of deer makes a point. The 4th Infantry was in Germany from May, 1951 to May, 1956 so the stein is dated in that range.
