Köstering, Johann Friedrich, 1830-1908. [from old catalog], Walther, Carl Ferdinand Wilhelm, 1811-1887. [from old catalog] · 1866 · St. Louis, Mo., A. Wiebusch u. sohn · 7 pictures

This German-language 1866 book, published in St. Louis by A. Wiebusch und Sohn and credited to Johann Friedrich Köstering and Carl Walther, recounts the 1838 emigration of Saxon Lutherans and their church history for a Missouri synod readership. Its pictures are plain wood-engraved views of church and college buildings: Concordia College in Fort Wayne and St. Louis, a small stone log-style chapel with a cupola, and a spired Gothic church, useful to a designer for period architectural forms and the look of 1860s American institutional print.
