Allerlei : zwanzig Schwarzbilder
Allerlei: zwanzig Schwarzbilder is a German children's picture book of twenty silhouette plates, published in 1884 by Verlag von Franz Lipperheide with verses by Heinrich Braun, Eduard Fehrenbach, Karl Fröhlich and Heinrich Seidel. The pictures are cut-paper style black silhouettes of children at play, often with birds, pets and scrolling vine borders, printed as solid black shapes on cream paper. A designer could take from them the clean silhouette figures and the flowing ornamental vine scrolls framing the scenes.
