    I am into weird books and I found this at the used book store today.

    I can't read German but the illustrations were, shall we say "interesting".

    Printed in 1976, red fabric Hardcover with a dust cover. The book is about 9 in x 12 in, the page numbers at the top of the pages don't seem to correspond to any proper numbering system. Some pages are single digits others are triple digits.

    If anyone reads German I was wondering what sort of book it is, what it's about. It's filled with these kinds of small illustrations. All captions & text are in German. There is only about 4 pages of actual text at the end of the book.

      This was the best I could get:
      book begins with "Dark figures", followed by "Little Potty like to run over." "Between Schilda and backwater" and so it goes merrily on, a total of 170 pictures bow, all with old German script, all taken from Munich and Neuruppiner Bilderbogen, some facsimiles.
      A very interesting and entertaining great picture book for adults.
