Dean's Rag Book, number 291. A superbly preserved rag book from Dean and Co, who pioneered the rag book for the youngest children in 1903, producing boldly coloured printed calico books designed to be washable and indestructible. The Dean logo show two dogs pulling at a rag book. The pinked edges were designed to minimise fraying, and in this case the copy is unused.Lots of Things, in addition to its various vocabulary images, includes the memorable verse:'A leaf of lettuce, or a bunchOf carrots is, to rabbitsFar nicer than a costly lunch:They have such frugal habits.Pigs on the other hand are crudeAnd greedy, while their feedingIs mannerless and even rude;It shews their lack of breeding'. 8vo (200 × 150 mm), pp. [6], plus cover, all folded from the same piece of colour printed linen, sewn at spine, with zigzag pinked edges, as issued. With paper catalogue and advert slip loosely inserted. A fine copy. [WorldCat: Auckland (NZ) and Cotsen (Princeton).].
