Who is Stefan Mart?

Not much is known about Stefan Mart other than that he wrote and illustrated Tales of the Nations, a series of stories told through a collection of prints given away with cigarette packages in Germany during the 1930s. All 150 of the surviving prints are viewable at the Stefan Mart Homepage: Märchen der Völker, along with a more detailed history of the stories and the mystery surrounding the artist’s identity.

    Hello!

    During my childhood the “tales of the nations” had such a strong impact on me. Now, 45 years later i rediscovered this book and it is still that fascinating….
