New York: Fleming H. Revell Company, 1900. Boards. Very Good -. Isaac Taylor Headland. The 1900 1st edition of this charming offering of Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes, with its wonderful photographic illustrations accompanying each rhyme. Solid and VG- in its pictorial boards, with light wear along the tips, the spine ends and the panel edges. The front free endpaper tender (but still firmly holding), the rear endpaper neatly excised. Still though, attractive and very presentable. Octavo, dual text to each rhyme as well, with the Chinese text appearing opposite each rhyme's photograph and the English translation appearing just below it. Translated and illustrated by Isaac Taylor Headland of Peking University.
