      They are both Student Association Steins (similar to fraternities). The they both have the Number "280" which is the mold number.

      The red stein has a VB stamp witch stands for Villeroy and Bosch. It has 96 and 20 stamped in it, so I would believe it was manufactured in either 1896 or 1920.

      The blue stein is most likely made by Villeroy & Bosch. The art work was completed by Friedrich van Hauten, please see the Stein Marks page for more information.
