A German primer and reading book by Carl Straus, published in 1833 by the Herold'sche Buchhandlung, meant for children learning to read by the sound method. Its pictures are small hand-coloured scenes labelled with one German word each, such as Jahrmarkt, Katze, Bär and Reiter, set in cropped octagonal frames with a plain, folk-style manner. A designer could take the simple framing and bright flat colour as a model for vintage educational alphabet cards.
