They started publishing books with pop-ups from the 1890s. The books in the series A Father Tuck "Come-to-Life" Little Book were small and each had two fan-folded pop-ups.This volume, illustrated throughout by Dinah, includes two charming double-page fold-out panoramas, both preserved in full working order. Collated, complete. In the original quarter cloth and pictorial paper boards. Externally, very smart. Slight rubbing to extremities. The odd very slight handling mark to boards and one or two spots.
