Kleiner Klebeband
The Kleiner Klebeband ("''little glued binder''") is a collection of over 120 drawings from the 15th and 16th century, which were combined into a leathern binder in the 19th century. It considered as one of the most important reference collections of German art drawings from that period. Maximilian Willibald of Waldburg-Wolfegg (1604–1667) started to collect the drawings of the ''Kleiner Klebeband'' from 1650 until his death. They were part of a much larger art collection, the Wolfegg cabinet, that he founded. They were drawn on loose sheets, but in the 19th century they were assembled into a leathern binder. In fall 2011 the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz wnd museums of the city of Augsburg bought them from the family Waldburg-Wolfegg and in December of the same year they were shown to the public for the first time in a special exhibition.
