~ A' schwäbischer Bauer ~ | |
Apparently one should not tread on a Schwabian farmer's land or the consequences could be tough seems to be the theme on this PUG (printed under glaze) stein marked with the Villeroy & Boch (Mettlach) logo and form number 1526, decor number 598 and dated 1895. | |
A' schwäbischer Bauer i' seht oft an a Schutz trifft manchmal in's Schwarze mit blei und mit Witz. |
A Schwabian farmer is often seen on the defense (of his land) sometimes he hits the black (bull's eye) with lead (bullet) and sometimes with wit. |
