Notes
The only text reads: Speghel onser behoudenisse | rechtvaerdiche t\vele me[n]sche[n] alle herre[n] in die enti | Hier omist dat\ir totten vele me[n]sche[n] dit \boeck heb ae[n]gedacht
This title is the Dutch version of the Speculum humanae salvationis or Speculum salutis, which Coster is supposed to have begun printing about 1439.
Possibly a race game.
A public monument was erected in Haarlem in 1823 in honor of his supposed 400th anniversary.
Includes images of Coster's supposed arms, a portrait similar to one published by Meerman about 1765, a simplified version of the statue of Coster in the Doctors' Garden from Seiz about 1740, a scene of a man carving a wooden letter "A," and several views of men casting type or printing. All these images surround one of an ornate mausoleum. Without instructions.
See record for panorama with this title issued in 's Gravenhage by H.L. Hoogstraten, ca. 1860 in P.J. Buijnsters en Leontine Buijnsters-Smets, Papertoys: Speelprenten en papieren speelgoed in Nederland (1640-1920), p. 350.
