A. Oberländer-Bilderbuch

Oberländer, Adolf · 1925 · Braun & Schneider · 45 pictures

A picture book by Adolf Oberländer, published in Munich by Braun & Schneider in 1925, drawn for children and built on comic verse with colour lithographs. Its pages show animals and people in comic scenes: a dog in a sack, a hare and dogs running across a field, a girl pushing a baby carriage, and a man playing a tuba. A designer might take its loose, caricatured line, flat colour washes and the way each small scene sits above a stanza of rhyming text.
