Man with Tomcat

Catalog No. 765

Pottery, figural, 0.5L.

Text:
�Du lockst keine Katz hintern Ofen raus, so sagt mein eh�lich Sch�tzchen,
und ich bring ihr doch manchen Kater nach Haus von diesen Pl�tzen.�

(You can�t entice a cat from behind the oven, so says my honest sweetheart,
and I bring home to her indeed many tomcats from this little place.)

To appreciate the meaning of the text, it must be understood that �Kater� (tomcat) is both a German symbol and idiomatic expression for a hangover.

Note that this model number exists with both top hat and derby (more rare) lid inlays.

Price Ranges
Top Hat: $350-$500
Derby: $500-$650
