First Edition. Amusing verses about skating, sledging, tobogganing, curling, ice-skating and skiing in Switzerland, with a collection of Baumer's cartoon style illustrations.Internally very clean. The text is a series of light-hearted poems on the subject of the British abroad on winter sporting holidays. The illustrations which are brilliantly coloured convey all the stereotypes of the smart Swiss ski-ing holiday.Sidney met Susan on a day ; He ‘took to her’, as you might say. And they were married right away. Though Susan was extremely nice, She had one solitary vice : She loved the land of snow and ice. While Sidney, on the other hand, Preferred some sunny, southern strand, Far, far removed from Switzerland. But husbands do what wives decide, So Sidney spends each Christmastide In looking most undignified. Helveticat-; Swiss National Library -; Rero -. Image disp.
