Description: Historical Documents/Jewelry: Lorenz Von Stein Presented for the consideration of the public is some of the more unique items to come through my collection, sold as one lot: The personal effects of Lorenz Von Stein. Included in this lot are three items, including Lorenz Von Stein's personal travel papers with photo, the Von Stein patent of nobility, and the Von Stein family seal. These were purchased from estate auction in 2018. You will receive all three items, including the family Von Stein's patents of nobility, the 14k gold family wax seal ring, and Von Stein's personal travel identification. These are original historical items of a famous German socialist and will be packaged with extreme care. Von Stein is regarded as the "father of the welfare" state and an intellectual predecessor to Marx. A Hegelian liberal, Von Stein's works influenced American progressivism. Scandinavian born, but an German and Austrian national, Von Stein wrote several now famous works studied across the world between 1946 to 1889. Further descriptions are given below to the best of my ability. If you are a museum and you are interested in this piece, feel free to reach out. Offers are genuinely appreciated and considered. These items are more historical artifacts than antiques, and the best place for them is on view to the public. We will also entertain visitations to see these items, but will release a full video soon that shows them in greater detail. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_von_Stein My transcribing crosses a language barrier as well as over a century and a half, and may not be dependable with specific words: Lorenz Identification: Lorenz Von Stein's travel identification is in very praiseworthy condition. The wallet is in dark leather embossed on the front with a seal and the words "K.K.O. St. B." "Amtliche Legitimation 1887" The inside left panel features a photo of Von Stein that is unmistakably the historical figure who is given credit for coining terms like "class warfare" and influenced heavily both public administration and social sciences. There is a tear at the bottom of the photo. near the tear, the photo is stamped with a seal and the following words "K.K.N.O. Statthalterie-Praesidium". The second panel introduces the purpose and legitimacy of the document with the following: "Amtliche Legitimation" "giltig bis 31 Dezember 1884 womit Herr Dr Lorenz Ritter von Stein Diensteigenschaft (unreadable) aud Grund des Handelsministerial-Erlasses vom 20.
