20 Inch Tall Beer Stein With a "Moby Dick" Whale Handle and a "Fran" Pottery Mark

Hi Steve

Phew - you'd get a nice drink of beer from a 20" stein!

This looks kind of hand made to me - as if it's from an amateur artist. It's nice and a fun object though.

If other people have this item, then maybe it is not hand made by an amateur, but from a small studio perhaps.

Interesting submission - let's see what we get.

Dear Steve, I've gone through my Beer Stein Book 3rd edition and also run the usual searches with no luck. There is a great website though that is very good about answering questions. Here's the link:

If you get an identification from them please be sure to post the results here.

Yours, Blake
