Oblong octavo. (30)ff. loose sheets. An "appalling alphabet" of the dooms of twenty-six children, ranging from Amy, who falls down the stairs, to Zillah, who drinks to much gin. As in all lettered copies, after the alphabet comes a reproduction of a cancelled image for "Fanny". Gorey's signature embossed on title and colophon cards. Housed in black four-flap case, which shows some foxing to interior paper lining. About fine.
