Neues unterhaltendes ABC : Sillabir- und Lesebuch

J. A. R, Roth, G · 1820 · beÿ Christoph Fembo · 8 pictures

A hand-coloured German alphabet and spelling primer, published in 1820 by Christoph Fembo for young children learning to read. Each letter sits beside a small framed scene of animals, people and farm life in a naive woodcut style. A designer could take its simple stacked panel layout, bold letter labels and flat, bright colour blocks as a model for children's illustrated charts.
