The reverse is plain

make the form feel earthy and organic

but here it is the whole scene (set at the Saint-Cloud race track just outside of Paris)

Tongue Twisters, The Carol Press, Boston, 1910 ceramic dog The reverse is plainI can't find another copy or even a trace of this book of tongue twisters out there anywhere, so don't think there were a whole lot of cops produced. What a pretty and fun little one it is though, with 16 pages worth of enunciatory challenges, some familiar, others certainly new to me. A great gift, or perfect amusement for cocktail hour. 4 3 4" x 3 1 4". 16 p plus endpapers. Hardback, with some wear scattered light stains to the cover; overall good
