Wie's im Hause geht, nach dem Alphabet : in Reim und Bild
Wie's im Hause geht, nach dem Alphabet is an 1861 German picture book by Oscar Pletsch, published by Weidmann, for young children, arranging household scenes by letter of the alphabet with a rhyme beneath each. Its pictures are small, tidy wood-engraved domestic interiors with a clear black outline, a framed capital letter at top and bottom, and simple figures of children, mothers and tradesmen, a useful reference for designers wanting an orderly, sentimental 19th-century family-life vocabulary and alphabet framing devices.
