Cutting made for an auction in Copenhagen to raise money for families of Danish soldiers who fought against Prussia in 1864. The poem in the middle is in Danish: "This paper cut is somewhat dear / half a rigsdaler, we'll say / But it's really a whole fairy tale / Your kind heart will have to pay." The Royal Library, Copenhagen.
