Ein hüpsch Spil gehalten zu Ury in der Eydgnoschafft/ von Wilhelm Thellen/ jhrem Landtmann/ vnnd Ersten Eydtgnossen
A 1618 German printed play about the Swiss hero Wilhelm Tell, published by Johann Schröter and held by the University Library Bern, written for a general reading public and staged or read in the Swiss Confederation. Its pages pair dense black-letter German verse with small woodcut scenes of archers, peasants, and armoured men in outdoor or domestic settings, and a designer might borrow their compact framing of figures within rules and the contrast of dark woodcut line against blank paper.
