EK 1914 Beer Mugs and the Iron Cross

[Chris Boonzaier]

Does anyone have any Beer Mugs with an Iron Cross theme?

Here is one....I missed a superb, super rare group to a Colonial officer, but as a booby prize the seller sold me the guys beer mug and an extra EK1 out of the group. Stupidly I forgot the guys name....

Hello Chris!

The lid looks older than it is! I'm 100% certain (well, 99) that it is as modern as the mug (that is around 2000). The EK 1914 was probably chosen because it is the most well-known version (or the second most well-known but more PC version of the two!). I wouldn't be surprised if there's more beer mugs like this one from different BW units out there, I know that my friend had an almost identical mug, if mine is of the brigade HQ Coy, then his was probably of the brigade (the bridge/background colours were reversed).
