Pages 101-108 - The Incomparable Cheltenham Family
An 8-page folding spread set in various member of the Cheltenham family. The order here, while in correct numeric page order, is misleading. The reader of the physical volume first encounters page 101. Upon turning this page, pages 102 and 107 appear (but these two pages are not unified into a single spread). Page 102 folds out to the left, revealing a unified two-page spread, pages 103-104, advertising ATF Kelly presses. Page 107 folds out to the right, revealing two separate pages (105, 106) with several showings of material set in Cheltenham family members. Finally, folding everything back up and proceeding, page 108 appears last.
