Im Spiegel der Tierwelt: Studien von Käthe Olshausen-Schönberger, II. Teil (cover: Neue Folge)

Abstract

See my comments on the first, third, and fourth volumes of this lovely little collection, all under the same date of 1905? This volume starts off with a lively contrast between the official and non-official dining-out parties. The latter folks are having a much better time! Der wissenschaftlich-populäre Vortrag (17) comes too close to home; I feel as though I may have sometimes been that boring speaker! My top prize in this volume goes to Anschluss! (25). Actually it has a much fuller title, too long to copy here. It is about a telephone operator's ability to connect. Other outstanding illustrations include Mein Seliger! (7); Entsetzlich! Das einzig Stillose in uns'rer Wohnung ist mein Mann (9); Der Freier sitzt drin! (24); Das Rigorosum (26); and Die Schlange und das Kaninchen (31).
