The occupation of being a grandmother. Check out the old stoneware water / wine jug with a rope handle to the left.
“Occupational” reproduction beer steins are done in the same style as the “reproduction -regimentals.”
These, should you wish to own them, will be hard to find. Not too expensive, just hard to find.
OLDER VERSIONS ARE FIRST, BELOW ▼:
One made to celebrate being with the German postal service.
A Fireman’s Occupational repro. Unknown maker, probably Karl Rau.
A boot maker – with an oldeer “Prism” lid re-attached. Again unknown maker but probably Karl Rau.
A farmer’s reproduction with another older lid re-attached. Made by Rau.
A tailor’s reproduction with yet another older lid with a glass “jewel” on top attached, which is much too big. A waste of a good lid! Body made by Rau.
For more mis-information on this subject please see this You-Tube video where unfortunately the author = in New York City, believes the Baker’s Occupational shown (not above) to be an authentic one . There are a bunch of other occupational reproductions shown by them on other videos listed to the right of the screen. Their prices being asked reflect that they think these are real.
