The Regensburg factory was only in business for 16 years, these were the owners.
BORHO, ZINKL AND CO. 1874-1875
ZINKL, THENN AND CO. 1875-1877
FRITZ THENN CO. 1877-1886
This stein doesn't have a capacity or makers mark, but it has a #238 mold number and something that may be an iron cross and a large Gothic style S, all on the base. To me the handle and the two bottom relief bands look like Regensburg bands. If you search for Fritz Thenn on line you can find John McGregor's Regensburg site. It's about 6-1/2" to the top of the lid and about 8-3/4" to the top of the thumb lift. The really nice porcelain insert is of the Schutzenlies painting of Coletta Moritz. It also has a closed pewter hinge.
