Zway schöne Lieder : Das Erst von dem Künig von Vngern/ wie er vmkom[m]en ist : Das ander/ Wol hewr zu[o] disem Mayen/ in grün will ich mich kleyden
A 1555 German broadside-style songbook of two secular songs, printed in black-letter type with a woodcut title page, probably issued by the printer Hans Gegler for popular street and household singing. The title page shows two full-length woodcut figures in narrow framed panels: a bearded man in a long coat holding a bow and a cloaked soldier in armour carrying a spear beside a banner-like shield. A designer might take from it the compact framed-panel layout, the bold blackletter lettering set against the aged paper, and the stiff, simple outlines of Renaissance woodcut costume figures.
