Sammel-Album für Stollwerck-Bilder
A German album of collectible chocolate-card trade pictures published by the Stollwerck chocolate firm in 1898, assembled as a sammel-album for collectors. The six-to-seven card sheets group Art Nouveau allegory, Märchen fairy-tale scenes, composers' portraits, and 1870-71 war scenes, each card framed with printed captions in German. For designers, the sheets show how dense decorative framing, flat colour blocks, and stylised typography were used to sell a mass product.
