Square octavo. (8)ff. Paired with Bingham's poems are six chromolithographed movables, which, by the pull of a tab, shift the scene in cinematic fashion from one view to another: during a trip to the zoo, a bear climbing a pole flips to a camel ride, and the beginning of a celebratory parade reaches its conclusion with a show of fireworks. Bound in pictorial boards backed in red cloth. Moderate soiling to boards and some rubs to corners, professional paper repair to lower corner of first page as well as to front hinge, else a near fine copy.
