~ Wenn die Sonne scheint so warm ~ | |
This is a cute and very desirable whimsical scene of frogs drinking beer in a pond designed by Heinrich Schlitt. The 3 L PUG (printed under glaze) stein is marked with the Mettlach logo, mold number 1526 and decor number 1038, ca. 1900. | |
Wenn die Sonne scheint so warm, trinkt der Frosch daß Gott erbarm. |
When the sun shines so warm, the frogs drink to God's mercy. |
