Der Knabe des Tell : eine Geschichte für die Jugend
A youth's story titled Der Knabe des Tell, written by Jeremias Gotthelf and published by Julius Springer in 1846, aimed at young readers and set in the Swiss legend of William Tell. The cover shows a bearded man in a feathered cap and doublet holding a crossbow beside a boy, framed by a foliage border and a scroll-shaped title panel on a mottled tan ground; a designer could take the framed scroll lettering and the pairing of hero and child as a model for a heritage children's book cover.
