Written and illustrated by P. S. Newell.
Published by Century & Co. of New York in 1893. A presumed First Edition.
Hardcover. Illustrated paper boards.
Landscape format: 23 x 17 cms or 8 1/2 x 6 1/2 inches.
An upside down illusion book. It contains 31 amusing, annotated coloured pictures which when looked at from the opposite direction present as a different image.
Condition: Very Good. The cover is worn at the corners, spine and edges. It is slightly grubby. The binding remains secure. A corner of the first endpaper has been torn off; I presume because a previous owners name was written on it. There is a bookseller's sticker on the endpaper: Alfred Wilson of London. The pages are occasionally faintly marked but in the main clean. There is no jacket.
