These are referred to as "tinnies".
You can find more about them here,
Winterhilfswerk.com | German Winter Relief Organization
I will move this thread to the correct section.

Hello gents,
Not exactly "Winterhilfswerk" but rather these were sold by the Deutsches Jugendherbergwerk Organization. This particular set was sold in 1940 and came as a set of six pieces. There is also a rarer variant set of six that is made of plastic and not glass.
The Deutsches Jugendherbergwerk sold items just like the WHW and other various civic organizations to raise funds. This particular organization raised funds to help support the German Youth Hostel program.
Wow, thanks for the info Guys.
What do you think they are worth??
In this condition I would get around $10.00-$15.00 for all 4 on my site. I have sold hundreds and hundreds of these over the years.
