This vintage collector's edition book is titled "Pop Up Nursery Rhymes" and features delightful period style illustrations of the 1970s.Very much a book of its time!

This book very much has the same style and feel of the illustrations from that 1970s era. As an illustrator myself, i notice the more muted earthtones color palette common for those times, the exaggerated facial expressions on the figures and animals, the consistent line weight of the ink outlines.
