GERMAN Translation - 4/26/2003 9:38:15 PM    Flaschenjager   Posts: 794 Joined: 12/21/2002 Status: offline Hello Diggerjeff and all, I can help some w/ the translation. The first line means " To the German Kaiser" . The second line is a street or address. " weg" means path or road, 139 is the road number. The last line could be a phone number, pat. no., etc. Sorry, but we do not know what it was used for or contained. I hope that this has helped. _____________________________ 'M' (in reply to Guest) Post #: 2

RE: GERMAN BOTTLE?? - 7/25/2003 4:13:11 PM    Guest " The German Kaiser" can perhaps also be the name of a pub... I think the street address is Gardeschützenweg 139; not " Bar Segchutzen weg" You could perhaps try to send emails to Oma Brink' s Kartoffelhaus and ask if they know anything about the bottle: Google search Gardeschützenweg appears to be a pretty uncommon streetname in Germany.

The numbers are probably the telephone #. (in reply to Guest) Post #: 5
