Caption on back reads: 'Rübezahl disguised as a hunter, gave an old man plums,and led him on his horse to his hut, where at the behest of Rübezahl the old man planted the stones, and harvested so many delicious plums that he became rich.' ('Rübezahl schenkt als Jäger verkleidet einem alten Manne Pflaumen, führt ihn auf seinem Roß nach dessen Hütte, wo der Alte die Kerne auf Rübezahls Geheiß pflanzte und so viel köstliche Pflaumen erntete, daß er reich wurde.')
