activity, this book neatly sums up the prevailing ways in which one,
all-purpose compound NAPOLIO, could be used for a variety of purposes.
Page size is 16 x 21 cms. I suspect the authors might include E.V.Lucas.
George Morrow was a prolific illustrator but not quite so cutting and
powerful as here.
The invention

shows most of the book, and stresses the variations on the advertisements
and classified advertisements of the day.
