A fine early 20th-century regimental stein belonging to Gunner Mühlhuber, commemorating his service in the 7th Field Artillery Regiment “Prinzregent Luitpold”, 1st Battery, based in Munich during 1906–1908. The hand-painted porcelain body vividly depicts mounted artillery units in training and gun crews in action, with the patriotic motto “Drei Jahre haben wir gedient für Deutschlands Fried’ und Ehr’” (“Three years we served for Germany’s peace and honor”).

The front features the crowned initials PL of Prince Regent Luitpold, surrounded by ornamental motifs and regimental banners. Pewter lid with artilleryman and cannon finial, Bavarian lion thumb lift, and lithophane inside showing the classic “soldier’s farewell” scene. Rich color, fine detail, and strong glaze make this an outstanding example of Munich-produced reservist art from the pre-WWI period.
