No date. Research shows that this moveable was likely published in 1914* by Sully and Kleinteich - Later published under "Pictorial Color Book Company". PCB was incorporated in 1920 and published these books again in 1922.
"Pictorial Color Book Company" is identified by a strip of paper on the title page. PCB took the Sully and Kleinteich inventory and pasted their name on them. This is a first edition printed in Germany. (We have a later edition of the same title with "Pictorial Color Book Company" actually printed on the book cover and title page).
