Hand-coloured panorama in ten scenes 'seven feet long'; a few very neat repairs to versos & folds, folded into orig. pictorial card wrappers, red cloth spine; the descriptive text which is laid on to the verso of the front wrapper is trimmed to the right affecting letters on all lines, as must be the case with all copies. A very nice copy, with excellent colouring. v.g. Not in Abbey Life who does record Humpty Dumpty also by Aliquis (see Abbey Life 559). Not in BL; Oxford and V&A only on Copac; no further copies on OCLC. Two copies are recorded on auction records, in 2014 and 1948. A lovely panoramic depiction of the nursery rhyme: 'There was an old woman tossed up in a blanket, / Nineteen times as high as the moon.' The rhyme is printed in full on the front cover. The front wrapper, acting as the titlepage, is illustrated with the hand-coloured image of a small boy (with another to his side) looking through a telescope. The title is etched within a blanket thrown over the side of a basket. The illustrated back cover advertises this title as 'just published, price 3s. 0d.', describing the work as a 'pictorial journal, or hand book for the sky; seven feet long'. Also advertised is The Pictorial Humpty Dumpty; six feet long, and the Six-penny Song', also by Aliquis (at NLW & V&A only on Copac). The wonderful plates, described in the text on the cover verso, show the Old Woman's progress from being tossed in a blanket by five jolly men, all the way past the moon and beyond; the final two plates showing her fending off colourful birds with her broomstick before reaching a spider-laden sign labelled 'No further thoroughfare except by comets!', pointing upwards to Ad Infinitum, downwards to Earth and eastwards to the North Pole. Aliquis is commonly identified as Samuel Edward Maberly, first president of the Oxford University Book Club in 1843.…
