It says: “Der Prisenschuß” in the old (pre-1996) spelling — the modern spelling is “Prisenschuss”.
It’s a novelty device that is supposed to catapult snuff into your nose. “Prise” means “pinch” in the sense of “a small amount”, i.e. “pinch of snuff”, and “Schuss” is a shot — it shoots a pinch of snuff into your nostril. As far as I can make out this is something of a brand name for what is generically termed “Schnupfmaschine” or “Schnupfkanone”.
Boy that were the 90s when the snuff industry tried with full force to win the young generation for their dying product by the means of agressive Party marketing.
Schnupftabakmaschine
Had that at our wedding in 1982 for the male guests who were so inclined administered by waitresses in dirndls (traditional dresses). Those were the days! Achoo!
I wonder if any of those lederhosen guys tried coks with it, asking for a friend !
Everyone has answered the question. And now I have more questions.
It’s a snuff machine. You have to successfully use one to gain full citizenship.

It‘s „der Prisenschuss“ (Pinch Shot)
The device can then be used to consume snuff (Schnupftabak).
Edit: Prise/Pinch not Brise/Breeze
Der Prisenschuss
Prise = Pinch, Schuss = shot
Basically it catapults (shoots) a pinch of tabacco made for snorting up your nose
„Der Priesenschuss“. Its a machine for shooting snuff Tabaco up your nose. „Priese“ is a portion of such tobacco.
[We did it reddit 😂 its sold out and a lot of people have seen it recently](https://www.eurotops.de/schnupfmaschine-prisenschuss-20178.html)

It says “Der Prisenschuss” translating literally to “the shot of a dose of snuff (tobacco)” Apparently [this machine](https://www.eurotops.de/schnupfmaschine-prisenschuss-20178.html) is made for catapulting tobacco into your nose.
