About This Item
London: Ernest Nister, 1900 Nister Edition No. 5022. No date, c.1891-1900. Pictorial blue boards, with red spine. B/W line illustration and four decorative color plates, with revolving illustrations. No illustrator credited, but several of the line drawings are signed E.R., P.B.H. Four poems: Round We Go, Bubbles, The Circus, Hurry Up! -- each with a color revolving illustation, consisting of discs with cut-ours that allow the pictures to change colors when turned by hand. White eggs become multi-colored, acrobats' clothes hange, even children turn from brown to white. A final poem, E'envoi, urges children to put the book away "Right up on the shelf, in the proper way, For the dear little elf would come no more If he saw his book on the nurs'ry floor." Slight browning to pages, rubbing to covers. The revolving photos have slight edgewear, one has a very small tear at inside edge. The colors are bright. A charming book
