List of titles on lower wrapper
Between 1860 and 1865, publishers' advertisements listed this title as no. 23 of Aunt Mavor's toy books (see pcb2657)
Reissued as no. [9] of Routledge's new sixpenny toy books series (substituting previous no. 9, Cock Robin, which was no more listed after 1867), but apparently never listed as such in publishers' advertisements
Hand-coloured at least until 1871 (see hereby, variant B)
Possibly withdrawn from production after 1873, when the Walter Crane's toy book with the same title was published within the same serie
NOTES
Printed on one side of the sheet only; first and last page pasted to upper and lower wrappers
Title and publication information from upper wrapper, which serves as title page, and from lower wrapper publishers' advertisements
Documents make no difference between this title as belonging to Aunt Mavor's toy books series or to Routledge's new sixpenny toy books series
PRINTING TECHNIQUES
Chromo-relief
Hand-coloured
