These English picture stories for children may have inspired German manufacturers of popular prints, (the so-called 'Bilderbogen') <b>to include picture stories</b> in their programm. The earliest Bilderbogen featuring comics seem to be from 1835, including the following example of a German copy of Branston's version of Mother Hubbard.
<br>
<br>
What makes this so interesting is the fact that these <b>Neuruppiner Bilderbogen</b> (sold in vast numbers) inspired the creation of <b>Munich Bilderbogen</b> around 1848, which become the stomping ground for the <b>slapstick comics by Wilhelm Busch</b>, who in turn became the starting point of <b>American sequential comics</b>, the Katzenjammer Kids. <br>
<br>
There seems to be a <b>direct line of influence</b> from British children's comics 1800-1840, via German Bilderbogen 1835-1890, to US newspaper comics (from 1895) where modern comics as we know them were finally established.

This book contains two stories, the second one (shown below) was a new version of Branston's comical cat (1818), apart from the first picture which in turn was based on the original chapbook from 1806. The drawings are in reverse.
