~ Staub macht Durst ~ | |
Those wily Germans have thought of every rationale to encourage drinking. This is a "tapestry" stein marked with the Mettlach logo and mold number 1646 and dated 1885. | |
Staub macht Durst und da der Mensch aus Staub gemacht, so mag er trinken Tag und Nacht |
Dust makes thirst and since humans are made of dust, we should drink day and night. |
