Abstract

This is one of two unusual finds in a lovely Berlin used bookshop. I did not know of the magazine Illustration 63. Antiquariat Ihring had several copies, and I looked through them. Not surprisingly, there were many fables represented in the good artworks reproduced in the issues. I found two especially nicely done and took them along. Each issue of the magazine includes a set of Beilagen, individual pieces printed on their own and included inside the back cover. This issue includes an article on Kafka's illustrators and shows a good combination of text and illustration by Archibald Bajorat for Kafka's Kleine Fabel (61). One of the Beilagen is Otto Schlosser's personally signed, energetic linocut of The Tortoise and the Eagle. It is about 15½ x 11½ folded once in the middle, with text on the left and strong illustration on the right. What I seem to be learning from Wikipedia and German Google is that the magazine died after seventy-nine issues.
