Quarto. (6)ff, gatefold. A re-publication of one of Meggendorfer's most successful and visually comprehensive displays, and a reissuance of the publisher's earlier and clearly commercially successful reproduction, this panorama unfurls to show six panels, each with a drop-down pop-up of a circus performer. Includes brief expository comments by Justin G. Schiller and Rodney Peppé and a program for the show identifying each scene. Light bumping to extremities, former bookseller's pencil marks at rear panel, else near fine in pictorial boards.
