A bill poster is sticking up a poster of The Czech Cinematographer on the wall of the pub U Nesmysla. When he tries to buy a sausage from the hot-dog seller, he accidently spills glue onto the latter's plates and cutlery. A fight ensues and passers-by also join the fray.
The film was shot and screened in the Czech Cinematograph Pavilion during the Exhibition of Architecture and Engineering at the Prague Exhibition Grounds, which lasted from June to October 1898. – Three original versions have survived. The above description refers to the first film version. In the second version, the billposter sticks a new poster over the original one. In the third version he sticks a strip of paper over the poster. – A letter from Josef Šváb-Malostranský to Jan Kříženecký and Josef Pokorný, dated 30th of April 1898, is stored at the National Technical Museum, in which Josef Šváb-Malostranský offers to "put together several comic scenes" for Czech Cinematograph. On the basis of this proposal came the film The Exhibition Suasage Seller and the Billposter (Susage Seller´s Mishap at the Pub U Nesmysla).
