Wow! I’m the person who uploaded this on flickr! I had no idea that this odd little book I found at our local library book sale had gotten so much notice. Yes, it was absolutely a children’s book (not at all an art book). It was being deaccessioned and it was in perfect condition; it clearly had never been looked at (I wonder why?). I’d be happy to scan the rest of it, but I gave the book away to a flickr pal who was pining for it! Maybe I should ask him to scan the rest!

This is awesome! Is the person who owns the book sure it’s a children’s book? Seems more like an art book.

A mime is a terrible thing to waste.

I think it’s a bit creepy, but not as bad as some children’s books I’ve seen. There’s a company which produces children’s books based on the Seven Deadly Sins, and it’s just plain disturbing, as well as scary (in the book about Wrath one of the children is pushed down some stairs and dies). Has anyone else heard of this?
