⁂ A rare trick volume, Library Hub lists the Bodleian copy only. The book appears to change contents depending on how the pages are flicked through, an effect achieved with different-sized tabs along the fore-edge. Among the several repeated illustrations appears Queen Victoria as a Queen of Hearts with her birth and marriage dates.
