Buntes ABC
Buntes ABC is a German alphabet primer published in 1897 by Wilh. Effenberger, Loewe, for young children learning letters. Its chromolithographed pages pair each capital and lowercase letter with a colourful animal, plant or figure, plus short rhyming verses. Designers could draw on its bold display letterforms, dense multi-letter layouts, and warm, saturated flat colour typical of 1890s children's printing.
