Der Geystlich Joseph : die gantze History und geschicht, Wie er vou synen Bruederen verhasst, und in Egypten verkoufft ward, etc. : in der wyss, Es warb ein knab nach Ritterlichen dingen, etc
A 1580 German chapbook of the Joseph story, printed by Vincentz im Hof and attributed to Benedict Gletting, written for a general German-reading audience and set to a knightly song tune. The title page carries a woodcut of armoured horsemen and figures in a crowded scene, with the black-letter title above and a library shelfmark in pencil below. A designer might take from it the dense black-letter typography, the blocky woodcut line of crowded armoured figures, and the way a narrative title page packs text and image together.
