Doing a little family picture scanning. Great-grandfather in 1881 in Germany. Check out the keg, the dark beer and steins. No light beer here!

No idea what is going on but the inscription is something like "in commemoration of middle school in Hannover. Maybe reilschule in this context is a military school? The German looks like Zur Erinnerung an die Reilschule Hannover. The large image has a print frame with lots of military motif stuff like flags and cannons, outside the size of my scanner.
