A German child´s school timetable c.1938 A browse through an auction catalogue of postcards led me to something unusual: a German schoolchild's timetable, dating to the period just before the Second World War. Many companies produce printed timetables for young children to fill in their school lessons. Such examples are usually distributed as advertising and can be found today from firms that supply school books as well as stationers and even insurance companies. The example I saw and eventually purchased in the postcard auction was used to advertise a book printer: Qualitksdruckfarben liefert Buchdruckerei F W Cordier Heiligenstadt (Eichsfeld) ("Quality printing supplied by the Book Printers F W Cordier of Heiligenstadt-Eichsfeld"). The advertising agency noted on the outside was the Zehbe company of Berlin-Schoneberg, and the printer was the firm of Franz Lindner of Ratibor. Fig. 1.
