Lotteriebilder
A printed sheet of lottery pictures titled Lotteriebilder, printed and published in 1858 in Magdeburg by Rudolph and Ernst Schmidt for children and home play. The image is a grid of about sixty small hand-coloured woodcut-style pictures, each with a short German caption printed beneath it. A designer could take from it the compact modular layout of many small square tiles with simple flat colour, bright primary tones, and labelled icons that read clearly at small size.
