this is a german "delft" cup and saucer. they are numbered, the saucer is number 65 and the cup is number 18. i dont speak german, unfortunately, but i tried to get a photo of what is written in the center of the saucer and front of the cup. if anyone knows what it means...i would love to hear the translation.

Questions & Comments

his drink was invented for a christening of a baby girl, Johanna Theodora Katharina, on Nordstrand Island on the 29th of February, 1872. Pastor Gustav Beyer was very strict and always berating his flock their for godless drinking. In order to avoid his wrath, the congregation served a drink made with rum and coffee. The whipped cream on top kept the rum aroma from wafting through the air and upsetting the pastor, who received plain coffee with whipped cream. However, at some point, the good man got a whiff of what was going on behind his back and cried out, "Ihr Pharisäer!" or "You Pharisees!" referring to the sect which heckled Jesus in the Temple.
