1881 Antique German Poet Hans Sachs Biography | Fatherland Series Vol 3

This 1881 antique German biography, 'Pictures from the Life: Hans Sachs, A Family Tradition,' offers a unique glimpse into the life of Hans Sachs (1494–1576), a prolific German shoemaker, poet, and influential Meistersinger. Translated by Harriett Reynolds Krauth and retold by Dr. August Wildenhahn, this volume is Volume 3 of the collectible "Fatherland Series".
Despite its 140+ years, the binding is tight and the text is fully legible. The brown cloth covers show age-appropriate wear (rubbing, scuffing, stains), and the gilt lettering is worn but readable. Pages exhibit typical discoloration and foxing. A charming 1881 gift inscription ("Pauline Muenchinger from Mrs Dr Spaeth") adds personal history, and period illustrations are included.
This book is ideal for collectors of antique books, German history enthusiasts, and students of Hans Sachs or Meistersingers, adding genuine historical charm to any collection. Your book will be securely packaged. Returns accepted if misrepresented.
