Sausage Sandwich (1871, 1875, 1882)

I think that it is more probable that all three of those sausage-sandwiches are of the type made in Germany (Wurstbrot) and in Sweden (korvsmörgås) and other Scandinavian countries, consisting of a slice of buttered bread, covered with one or several slices of some sausage, considerably thicker than the Frankfurter, the whole sometimes covered with another slice of bread.
The 1891 sandwich of course is a hot-dog, even if the name is lacking.
