Was Peterchens Freunde erzählen : Märchen / von Hermynia Zur Mühlen ; mit Zeichnungen von George Grosz.

Zur Mühlen, Hermynia, 1883-1951 · 1921 · Berlin : Malik-Verlag · 3 pictures

A 1921 German children's fairy-tale collection by Hermynia Zur Mühlen, published by Berlin's Malik-Verlag with drawings by George Grosz. The three pictures are loose ink line drawings on a cream-toned page: a bearded man hauling a huge log through a forest, miners with picks and a mine car beneath a smoky industrial skyline, and a child asleep on a cot under a blanket. Their caricatured figures and blunt linework suggest a designer could borrow Grosz's satirical, socially pointed drawing style for editorial or protest-themed work.
