The György Rauscher Archive

Publications

The periodicals connected to Rauscher fall into two kinds: those he illustrated, in his Berlin years, and those that reviewed him, in the Hungarian press. Six meet the threshold for a page at launch. Thinner connections, Scherl’s Magazin, Die Dame, UHU, and Pester Lloyd, are folded into the /publications/sport-im-bild context and the relevant biography chapters.

Periodicals Rauscher illustrated

  • /publications/sport-im-bild: Scherl Verlag’s society fortnightly (Berlin, 1895-1934); Rauscher’s principal outlet, with eleven covers and eight interior images.
  • /publications/jugend: the Munich art-and-literature weekly (1896-1940); his 1929 cover is his one independently verifiable printed work.
