This salutation is found on many old German beer steins that were purchased or
given in remembrance of some special event. This is a porcelain stein with a
lithophane ca. 1900. Note that the line over the consonant "n" makes it become a (double) "nn". | |
| Zur Erinnerung |
In remembrance (memoriam) |
| Many times this is found abbreviated as z. Erg. or z. fr. Erg. (zur freundliche Erinnerung -- in friendly remembrance) | |
