Der Whist- und Boston-Spieler, wie er seyn soll, oder, Gründliche Anweisung das Whist- und Boston-Spiel : nebst dessen Abarten, nach den besten Regeln und allgemein geltenden Gesetzen spielen zu lernen, nebst 26 belustigenden Kartenkunststücken
A German-language card-game handbook of 1834, published in Quedlinburg and Leipzig by the Ernst'sche Buchhandlung, teaching whist and Boston play along with 26 card tricks for home entertainment. The first picture is a Library of Congress stamp and is not part of the book; the second is a printed table of payment tariffs for Boston and whist scoring, set in dense black-and-white rows with German headings, useful for a designer interested in tabular layout and early nineteenth-century typography.
