Die Nilpferdjagd
A German picture-story sheet titled Die Nilpferdjagd, made by Emil Reinicke and printed by Meisenbach, Riffarth und Co in 1894 for a popular readership. Its twelve-panel comic strip of hippopotamus hunting in North Africa is drawn in loose, bold line with flat colour, and a designer could take from it the lively sequential layout of captioned panels and the bright, naive colour blocks.
