Kleine Jugend-Gabe mit Bildern
A German-language illustrated children's book of moral verse and instructive tales, engraved by Johannes Spalinger and published by J. F. Schalch in 1849, probably for young readers in Switzerland. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcut-style scenes of domestic life, a father and son, a guardian angel, and a blind man with a boy, each sitting above a block of rhymed text, so a designer might borrow their compact vignette layout and simple, legible figure drawing.
