Beschreibung
24pp. Woodcut on title page. Title within ornamental border. Six bifolia, unopened at head, as issued. A trifle creased and dusty. A Glaswegian chapbook collection of succinct anecdotes on a remarkably diverse range of subjects, from 'gipsy wit' to 'security against drowning'. Though often containing a modicum of useful wisdom, some of the selections are designed merely to entertain, for example under the heading 'Very Funny', one finds the following quip: 'Father do they light up railway carriages at night with gas? ' 'No, my dear, with train oil. ' Presumably one had to be there. This edition, one of several appearing at Glasgow and Alnwick in the mid-nineteenth century, appears unrecorded by OCLC or COPAC. Size: 12mo. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers AQ28599
