Umständliche Nachricht von der Churfl. Sächß. Schrifftsäßigen freyen Zien-Berg-Stadt Altenberg, in Meissen an der Böhmischen Gränze gelegen : nebst dahingehörigen Diplomatibus, und einem Anhange, von den benachbarten Städten und Berg-Oertern
A detailed 1747 German account by Christoph Meisner of the Saxon mining town of Altenberg near the Bohemian border, printed by Harpeter with its related charters and notes on neighbouring towns, written for readers interested in local history and mining law. The pictures are small printed town seals of Altenberg showing a bishop-like saint, a winged griffin and a miner at work within a round border of lettering, plus ornamental headpieces with scrolling foliage and flourishes that a designer could borrow for seals, cartouches or period-styled title pages.
