    This is a beerglass in the shape of an actual boot. This glass is over 39 years old and is from the 1972 Winter Olympics.Munich Germany is the home of many beer related events, but at this Olympics , 11 Israeli Olympic athletes, coaches, and one German officer were killed by a terrorist group, People who watched hours of Jim McKay on ABC remember this Olympics because of this tragedy.This glass holds one liter of beer. I collect beerglasses . I have over 1600 but this is one of my top 5 glasses.

      Any idea of what this is worth? I just bought a smaller one at an auction. Very cool glass!
