Fünf schöne Neue Lieder : 1.Ich bin der Doctor Eisenbart ...

[ohne Drucker] · 1 picture

A small German broadside of five popular songs, printed without a named printer and probably sold as cheap street literature, with the songs listed by their opening lines in black-letter type. Its single woodcut shows a comic figure in a spotted costume standing on a pedestal between pillars, the Doctor Eisenbart, a travelling quack. A designer might take its bold blackletter headline stacked over a centred framed image as a compact model for vintage handbill layout.
