About This Item
Glogau: Verlag von Carl Flemming, n.y.. Hardcover. 8vo. Burgundy cloth with gilt lettering, rules and pictorial stamping. viii, 192pp, (4pp ads). Color frontispiece, 23 full-page color plates, 12 woodcuts. Very good. Binding lightly edgeworn; 1891 ownership signature on front pastedown; inner hiinges show discreet black cloth reinforcement, thus tight. Attractive 29th volume of this annual first begun in 1856, undated but circa 1885. Entirely in German, the title translates, believe it or not, as "Heart Leaflet's Pastime: Entertainment for Little Boys and Girls for Heart Formation and Development of Concepts" -- and was issued yearly until 1933! Gumpert (1810-97) was an incredibly prolific and popular German children's author.
