Text:
�Wenn ich das Bier k�nnt meiden ging ich in Sammt und Seiden,
da ich�s aber nicht meiden kann hab ich zerriss�ne Kleider an.�
(If I could avoid beer I would be dressed in velvet and silk,
but since I cannot avoid it I am wearing torn clothes.)
Landsknechte were feudal serfs used for military purposes by their masters. These �soldiers� were often traded between landowners and were, in a sense, the equivalent of modern mercenaries, with the important difference that they were not free to choose their employer.
Price Range: $125-$175
