The Slant Book

The Slant Book are literally parallelograms, with the spines tilted to one side. Once opened, the facing page forms the letter "V". All the pictures on the slanted cover show a very early baby in a carriage [last year's "go-kart"] somehow escaping the nanny and happily running up a difficult slope understand.


By: Peter Newell (1862 - 1924)
