There are two leaves, the second of which has 4 horizontal cuts. This makes 6 flaps that enable various figures to be created. Volume is cut in the shape of an elephant, standing upright and dressed in a circus outfit; the front cover shows the elephant from the front, the back cover shows the elephant from behind. Front cover detached. Flap page has tape repairs. Tear in rear. Online descriptions suggest there were 12 p. originally, meaning much of this example is missing.
