In decorative, printed, yellow, soft paper covers, cotton ties, no backstrip, Internally, 6 numbered & titled B&W leaves of illustrations, no text leaves as issued, not dated but c1845, pencil gift inscription to fep dated 1887. (187*104 mm). Uncommon, no listing at Abbey, COPAC or WorldCat! A very rare little comic item which does not seem to appear in any institutional collections. A family jaunt up Snowdon is fraught with disaster as various members fall into streams, loose items of clothing to the winds, and take fear at the steep ascent. Finally at the top, the father eschews the stunning views for a bottle of stout before descending via Capel Curig.
