1950ref. 5362the Netherlands N. P. C1950 Page de titre et quatre pages recouvertes de lin (y compris la couverture arrière). Le rabat intérieur est entouré de cinq écheveaux de laine colorée. Le poème d'introduction (en néerlandais) explique à quel point il est facile de découper une page et d'utiliser la laine pour créer une image. À l'intérieur du livre, on voit clairement qu'une image a été découpée et, semble-t-il, brodée principalement avec du fil bleu ! Les couvertures sont brunies et marquées, et présentent quelques rousseurs. L'intérieur est principalement propre, mais présente également quelques marques. Dans l'ensemble, il s'agit d'un ouvrage attrayant, bien qu'incomplet, de l'histoire du livre pour enfants.
