Zeitschrift des Bergischen Geschichtsvereins
This is a German periodical of the Bergischer Geschichtsverein, the historical society of the Bergisch region in the Rhine Province, issued in 1863 by a Neustadt an der Aisch printing house for readers of regional history. Its pictures are hand-drawn military and topographic maps in pen and ink, with hachured hills, roads, villages and dashed boundary lines labelled in German script, useful for a designer seeking map-like linework, hatching textures and antique cartographic lettering.
