Description: The listing is for the antique book - The Hippopotamus Book' published in 1905 it is a miniature hard cover by Lily Schofield with 20 colorful images (pages) illustrated by the author. The pages are attached to one another by the original string. You can see in the pictures - in the beginning pages of the book the string is a bit loose and is tighter as you get further into the book.The book inside the cover is about to come away from the cover but is still holding on, you can see this in the 16th picture. It doesn't look like it would be too difficult to tighten it all up. Back cover has some dis-coloration.Overall, it is in quite remarkable condition for its age.It was a Christmas gift to my father when he was 5 years old - his first book.
