Octavo; hardcover with illustrated boards and endpapers; unpaginated (66pp.) with a colour frontispiece, decorated title page, many colour and monochrome illustrations and decorations, and five colour die-cut pop-up mechanisms. Minor wear; somewhat rolled; spine sunned and extremities mildly softened; boards a little rubbed with some minor bumping; text block and page edges mildly toned; all pop-ups working and in very good repair. No dustwrapper, as issued. Very good. An interesting survivor from the 1940s: the pop-up of the "Fairy Cottage" contains a working example of a Pepper's Ghost illusion, creating the spectral image of a flying fairy inside the cottage.

Mastercard, American Express and Visa are accepted. Payments may also be made by personal cheque (subject to clearance), or direct deposit - the currency must be in Australian dollars.

Shipping Terms

Orders usually ship within 2 business days. Packing and shipping costs will be quoted at cost. Insurance is available, if required, and recommended or items over AUD$50.

Please note that within Australia shipping costs are calculated on the basis of item weight below 500 grams. Australia Post charges more for items over this threshold and, of course, we have to pass this cost on.

Please note: generally speaking, we do not ship multi-volume sets (of more than two volumes) overseas; we are prepared to negotiate on some items, however.
