Thank you all for the Steinbarg fables.
I know the most popular ones.
I used to recite them as a little boy.
In certain Jewish upper class circles yiddish was avoided.
In our neighborhood Steinbarg was as popular as Schiller or Busch.
The fable : The bayonet and the needle ( Die Spiess in di Bichs)
was a big hit.:
" Einer Riven Shimen ode Ichs, Kimt fin der milchume mit a Spiss in mit
a Bichs"
Hardy
