It is one of the most extraordinary and eccentric examples of nonsense illustration in the early twentieth century. 'In 1915 one of the most wonderful Swiss children's books was published: beautiful lithographs by the architect Paul Hosch illustrate the verses written in Basle dialect... the book nonetheless went unacknowledged; this is largely due to the book's topic (the verses are written in dialect) as well as the general situation during the War...Hosch never produced another book.'

It was demolished by the Americans in 1788, its rubble apparently used for the landfill that became Battery Park.
