Die große Fuchs-Parade #[nn]

Jan Schniebel's "Die große Fuchs-Parade" brings a cheerful, cartoon energy to this 1976 Rowohlt publication, with its cover showcasing an adorable anthropomorphic fox dressed in a smart military parade uniform, complete with a tall hat and drum. The warm pastel tones and playful character design make this a charming snapshot of European children's comics from the mid-seventies. At 6.80 DEM, it's a delightful piece of illustrated storytelling from an artist who handled every aspect of the cover work himself.
