der kinder gebet von ottilie wildermuth
i just got this great little antique letterpress german book at a local antiques mall...it's missing all of its illustrations besides two, and appears to have been rebound, but i love the typeface. lucky find, me thinks! it also has an interesting and mysterious yugoslavian inscription. as far as i can translate (which means don't quote me :) it's two children's stories 'the children's prayer' and 'late luck' by ottilie wildermuth, who was known for her stories for young folks...
