Albrecht · 1578 · [Samuel Apiarius] · 1 picture

A 1578 German broadside-style pamphlet, probably printed in Switzerland by Samuel Apiarius, telling a cautionary tale of three gamblers from Wylisaw who were struck down by God and aimed at card players and blasphemers. The title page has a woodcut of three men in period dress seated at a table with a dog-like figure at left, set beneath a black-letter title and the date MDLXXVIII, with a colour overlay on the print.
