Oh, how I love this children cardboard folding screen with caged animal zoo booklet.  Not exactly a booklet, but for lack of a better term, I'll refer to it this way.  The six colorful lithographed embossed panels features farm animals on display in cages. Children are looking on and some appear to be feeding.  Dating this delightful children playtime educational toy from the late Victorian era, about 1890's.

Each panel is 3" wide x 4-3/4" long.  Overall length is 18" long.  Condition:  Even though each panels is quite nice, because these were just folded cardboard, over time some of the panels are separated.   Three still remain together and the other three are separate.  My solution would be to have this piece framed.  Not only would it be attractive and a conservation for sure, but it would also preserve.  

I have owned this piece for years and years.  It would make me happy to know someone else loves it as much as I have
