Vater Meinhold's Schutzgeist der Jugend oder väterliche Warnungen für Knaben und Mädchen vor allerlei Gefahren bei Spielen und Zeitvertreiben : mit 2 Kupfern
Vater Meinhold's Schutzgeist der Jugend is a German children's cautionary book printed in 1830 by C. P. I. Gundelach, warning boys and girls against dangers in their games and pastimes. Its two copperplate engravings are small, stacked vertically, and show scenes of play going wrong: a stable with a fallen child and a boy with a whip, and a barn with children near a swing and a hanging figure. A designer might take from them the plain, instructive narrative layout of early nineteenth-century moral illustration, with captioned panels and tight hatched linework.
