A German broadside ballad printed in Strasbourg in 1755 by Johann Andreas Krantz, a cheap printed song sheet for common readers recounting murders. Its single page is set entirely in dense black-letter type with a large blackletter title block at the top and an ornate woodcut-style border of scrolls and foliage framing the imprint at the foot, which a designer might borrow for decorative frames and mixed type hierarchy.
