Would make a great gift for the fan in your life, even if that's you. Direct reprint from the original antique children's book. It's original format was an accordion style, double sided frieze. Planographic or lithographic illustrations on paper were adhered to buckram cloth and then folded into itself. This book has been reformatted to a regular book style.There was no page for the the letter "W" as this book is of French origin and there were no words in the French language begin with a "W". The publisher has added a "W" to the book to match the other pages as even today there are very few words in French starting with that letter. The French call it a "double-v" not a "double-u".It's charming and wonderful, and can be enjoyed by children, linguists and artists of all ages. You'll notice that some of the illustrations are colored in, which are original to the source text. Clean and unmarked. Text is in French and English, modern undated edition. A true delight. 24 p. Book.

Condition: very good. London, Dean & Son [c1905]. Folio (37x26cm), covers and ten colour pages by Frank M. Barton mounted on card and bound as a concertina. Someone has taken Dean's declaration "untearable" as a challenge and managed to put a two inch tear into the top of one card, without loss; in all rather good. A delightfully large celebration of transport and movement with a bas relief front cover. Only a couple of letters display some clutching at straws - Q is for quickness and Z is for zebra cart. No book is ever debased by the presence of zebras. *This item might cost more to post than quoted by abe.
