Hoch-deutsches reformi[e]rtes ABC- und Namenbüchlein für Kinder welche anfangen zu lernen

1848 · Mentz und Rovoudt · 4 pictures

A German-language children's alphabet and naming primer published in 1848 by Mentz und Rovoudt, aimed at young children beginning to read. Its four woodcut pictures show a scholar and a servant beside a bookcase, a seated figure in a study, a man startled by a figure in a tree before a cottage, and a sheet of letters paired with animal cuts; a designer might take its compact framed vignettes and simple alphabet-and-animal pairing as models for pictorial lettering.
