Description
Germany, 1830. Very good. Minor toning, dust soiling, minor stains. Lacks torso panel number 9.. An attractive and engaging children's transformation game comprised of three sections-- head, torso, and bottom-- in which multiple panels can be exchange to reveal new costumes and characters. This particular game, "Little Metamorphoses", was designed for both English and French audiences. In total there are 29 panels, each with a printed number pasted to the verso of the card. This set lacks torso panel 9, but is otherwise complete. Each completed figure measures approx. 7" by 4". Panels housed in modern custom made cloth box measuring 7.5" by 4.5" by 0.5" Similar card transformation games were popular in the first half of the nineteenth century; Ackermann produced a similar version in London with male and female caricature types ("Changeable Ladies", 1819, and "Changeable Gentlemen", 1818).
