Meistertrunk Teddy baer

Meistertrunk Teddy bear Limited edition of 1,500 pieces - exclusively for Germany ?Meistertrunk? Teddy bear (28 cm, golden blond) commemorates Mayor Nusch, who saved the German town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber in 1631. General Tilly, a commander in the Imperial Army, seized the Protestant town. The town councillors were sentenced to death and the town was due to be pillaged. In its terror, the council offered the angry general a welcoming drink in a splendid tankard containing 3? litres of wine. He took a long draught and his mood was tempered by the wine. He gave the councillors a last chance: ?If one of you can empty this tankard in one draught, I will be merciful.? After some hesitation, former Mayor Nusch agreed to try, and before the amazed eyes of the crowd, he succeeded in emptying the tankard in one draught. Tilly kept his promise and spared Rothenburg. An annual ?Meistertrunk? pageant re-enacting the events commemorates Nusch's heroic deed right up to the present day. The ?Meistertrunk? Teddy bear is a worthy memento. Each Teddy bear (EAN 672033) has a white, consecutively numbered ear tag and a gold-plated ?Button in Ear?. This music teddy bear has the melody "Trink Bruederlein, trink"
