The Fliegende Blätter (literally Flying Leafs) was a German weekly non political humoristical and satirical magazine appearing between 1845 and 1944 in Munich. Many of the illustrations were by well-known artists like Wilhelm Busch, Count Franz Pocci, Hermann Vogel, Carl Spitzweg, Julius Klinger, Edmund Harburger, Adolf Oberländer and others. It was published by Braun & Schneider, the company of wood engraver Kaspar Braun and illustrator Friedrich Schneider. Aimed at the German bourgeoisie, it reached a maximal circulation of ca. 95,000 copies by 1895. It merged in 1928 with the competitor Meggendorfer Blätter.
