This one is an interesting item only in the sense that it is very commonplace, a small volume printed on very cheap paper, but interesting because of the huge amount of work that went into it. The illustrations appear to be signed O. Canteau, and I can find no reference to this artist. The book contains 5 full page illustrations on glossy paper, 2 full page on plain paper and numerous head and tail decorations and vignettes.In no way a valuable book but fun to explore and enlarge the detail for your viewing pleasure.
