Pigskin over boards; faded marbled edges. 12 gatherings of mostly uniformly-sized paper; then 4 leaves glued in and numbered separately, titled 'Ludicrous verses'.

Used occasionally.

Many pasted-in items from the Whitehall Evening Post. 

Single, some items by other hands likely inserted later.

Many pasted-in items from the Whitehall Evening Post.

The compiler comments appreciatively and nostalgically regarding the contents of the manuscript, particularly at the beginning or end of a work.  

Pagination not continuous. Specific segments are paginated by the complier as part of various sequences, suggesting the book is a later binding of various gatherings of 12-16 leaves each. 

Very little uniformity. Some items have a vertically oriented free-drawn spiral at end, or a #-type device that could be initials.

Items are occasionally separated by an inverted triangle of lines; but at times just a rough horizontal line between items on a page.

Items are not always titled and sometimes difficult to determine due to lengthy anecdotal/critical preambles which proceed them. 

Occasional items, including poems about the compiler's former school and pets
