Contact seller5-star seller[SANDS, Benjamin, author]. Metamorphosis; or, a Transformation of Pictures, with Poetical Explanations, for the Amusement of Young Persons. New York: Samuel Wood and Sons. Printed by J. Rakestraw, Philadelphia, 1824. A later edition, first published in Philadelphia circa 1787. Oblong leaf folded perpendicularly three times into…4 leaves; the top (80 mm) and bottom (60 mm) are folded inward over the central portion and spaces between the leaves have been cut out to form flaps. Leaf when open: (11 1/2 x 14 3/4 inches; 295 x 372 mm); when folded:(5 1/2 x 3 3/4 inches; 140 x 95 mm) With numerous woodcut illustrations by J. Poupard. Each leaf is folded inward at the top and bottom to create multiple illustrations when the flaps are closed and open. The illustrations include Adam and Eve, a lion and a griffin, a man and a heart, a man and a skeleton. The first line of text reads: "1. Adam comes first upon the stage, And Eve from out his side, Who was given him in marriage; Turn up and see his bride." Self wrapped. With some browning, spotting and dampstaining throughout. With tape repairs at folds. One fold is detached but present. The final bottom flap (containing #11) in possible facsimile, or supplied from another copy. Overall a very nice copy. The last copy of the first Philadelphia edition listed on Rare Book Hub was sold in 1937 and it states that the only other cop recorded was listed in Rosenbach #445. [Together with]: A later edition of the same work, dated 1827. This copy worn and dampstained with hand-stitched repairs but complete. Some hand-coloring to the Adam and Eve plate. A tear runing through the center of the leaves. Also known as a harlequinade, or a turn-up, this early moveable book for children has upper and lower flaps the reader manipulates according to instructions in the poem in order to transform the pictures. "A popular transformation or "metamorphosis" book with illustrations printed after James Poupard. In addition to the clever and detailed images of animals and figures, there are ornamental designs composing the head- and tail-pieces on the inner plates consisting of alphabet letters and numerals, as well as the author's name. The verses give instructions on how to proceed with the foldings." (Welch 1163.25) Welch 1163.25. HBS 69587. $1,500. TRANSFORMATION BOOK (illustrator).

Contact seller5-star sellerFirst Edition. Stories that Transform Before Your Eyes - Ernest Nister's Magical Pull-Tab Fairy Tales [TRANSFORMATION BOOK]. BINGHAM, Clifton. Surprise Pictures from Fairy Land. Verses by Clifton Bingham. London: Ernest Nister, New York: E.P. Dutton & Co, [1907] (code no. 1861). Quarto (9 3/4 x 7 1/4 inches; 248 x 185 mm.). [16]… pp. With six movable tab-operated color plates featuring triple-action transformations. Original glazed pictorial boards with gray cloth backstrip, pale blue patterned endpapers. Inner hinges professionally strengthened; minimal rubbing to corners and board edges. A remarkably well-preserved example of this scarce and highly engaging movable book. Clifton Bingham's charming verse retellings of beloved fairy tales and nursery rhymes are accompanied by black-and-white line illustrations throughout the text and six vividly printed color transformation plates. Each movable illustration is operated by a pull tab and reveals a sequence of three scenes that follow the narrative progression of the story. Among the highlights is the episode from Little Red Riding Hood, where the initial scene shows the young girl being prepared by her mother for her journey. The first pull of the tab reveals her encounter with the Wolf in the forest, while the second transformation dramatically changes the image to the familiar scene of the Wolf disguised in her grandmother's bed. Other subjects include Humpty Dumpty, Little Bo-Peep, Hey-Diddle-Diddle, Mother Hubbard, and The Three Bears. These intricate mechanical plates - printed in Bavaria using delicate layered paper mechanisms - are characteristic of the celebrated production methods employed by Ernest Nister. Because the thin paper components and pull-tabs were easily damaged through use, surviving copies with intact and functioning movables are increasingly uncommon. All movable plates in the present copy have been professionally re-tabbed and remain in perfect working order. The contents are clean and fresh, making this an exceptional example of an early twentieth-century transformation book.
