This is a very good original German WWII \u003cstrong\u003eLuftwaffe property-marked clear glass beverage bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e, complete with its original white porcelain swing-top stopper and wire bale closure. The porcelain stopper is prominently marked \u003cstrong\u003eEIGENTUM der LUFTWAFFE\u003c\/strong\u003e, translating to “\u003cstrong\u003eProperty of the Luftwaffe\u003c\/strong\u003e.” The bottle measures approximately \u003cstrong\u003e9 inches tall\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003e3-inch base diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bottle doesn’t retain the rubber seal under the cap, but the latch still works.
