Geschichte vom Peter Strumpbacher
A German-language illustrated sheet from 1849 by Wilhelm Lichtenheld, telling the story of Peter Strumpbacher through a grid of captioned scenes about soldiers in the Schleswig war between Germany and Denmark. The page is a printed narrative of soldiers' misadventures, with small captions set beneath each vignette. A designer might take its crowded comic-strip sequencing, with figures in period uniforms and gestures of mishap, as a model for panelled storytelling.
