Beschreibung

Very Rare. One copy located in Opie Collection (Bodleian). No copy in British Library catalogues. Top cover embossed (faintly) "Nelson's Oil Colour Picture Books for the Nursery". Eight leaves, sixteen sides, to include top and rear covers. Nine by eleven inches. Four full page chromolithographs, with text in verse opposite. Cover title and vignette in oil colour also. This copy with original stitching but all edges in very faded pink silk. We are uncertain if this is original. The Opie Collection listings show this as one of four titles, the others being: (1) "The Pig in its Cradle and Other Rhymes", (2) "Three Good Friends", and (3) "History of Tom Thumb". The four large chromos we would class as VG/F, The text good only. The pale torquoise covers, worn with 5% edge loss. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 002803
