Pewter Stoneware Stein-Translate ?

Here's a fun oldie i just picked up this morning-a pewter & stoneware Jaeger (Hunter) Stein. It's about 6 inches tall-good age for this part of the planet.
PS-Can anyone read the inscription on the pewter lid ? Could just be someone's name,or perhaps a phrase.

I think i found it-'Antique German Regensburg Style Beer Stein'

My sweetie was born in one of the Regensburg's, near Hamburg. There are apparently several of them, scattered around Germany.

 

That's cool Whit-you think it's a famous pottery town ?

 

possibly ... P Hirngibl

 

I am completely out of my depth about such things, Bosko...it may be so. All I know is, she's a real sweetheart!
In your 3rd pic, of the bottom of the stein; is there a correct name for that combed pattern? I've seen similar on Japanese clay-ware, an' perhaps a few studio pieces. It's attractive for me, an' I would like to know more about its use.

 

Thanks Roaring.

This method of throwing a German Stoneware stein (my piece) is known as
Westerwald Steinzeug: 1600-1914*
Here's what this site (link below)says about it,there are 3 methods in total.This section focuses on Method 2-
"The second method, and the oldest, is to form the stein on a potter’s wheel. The clay is mixed to a thicker, more plastic consistency until a “hump” can be formed. The hump is then placed in the middle of the wheel and a depression that will form the inside of the stein is made in the hump and the sides are drawn up. When the body is complete, it is removed from the wheel by pulling a wire under it. Sometimes a thin knife is used. The wheel is still turning when the stein is separated from the wheel, and drag marks that form a whorl pattern on the bottom are the result. Often these are smoothed away, but sometimes they are left as is.
