From World of playing cards:
Wilhelm Busch was a German caricaturist and humourist who lived from 1832-1908 (during the aftermath of the unsuccessful revolutions of 1848-49). He was immensely famous in his own country and loved by all Germans due to his satirical “picture stories” in which he mocked the “Biedermeier bourgeoisie”. He is credited as the inventor of the comic strip and his cartoons and comic verse are as well known in Germany as Edward Lear’s cartoons and limericks are in England. Most famous of his characters are Max and Moritz, a couple of bumbling nitwits always in trouble. Their adventures continued from very early in Busch’s career to the very end. A later entrant was Fipps the Ape, also very popular. Many card games were produced in Germany using his characters and several are illustrated here. The Germans definitely do have a sense of humour!
