Re: in the public domain and easy to find--how do you search for images at Gutenberg? Or are you getting these from books they archive there? I'd like to be able to find stuff like this easily, but got lost...
you can go here:
http://www.gutenberg.org/files/12116/12116-h/12116-h.htm
they may not be high res, but you might be able to order high res ones.
oh, the link got cut off, but i think if you go to:
www.gutenberg.org you can get to their archives.
good luck!
those images are from a collection of German childrens' moral fables i read over and over as a kid....
