GERMAN BIG BAD WOLF VS 3 PIGS BOOKLET (1970)

Above scan is of the title page of Die 3 kleinen Scheiweinchen bauen ein Haus (1970), a German illustrated story booklet featuring the archetypal three pigs fable. The cover illustration features only the pigs and not the wolf, but the illustration on this title page is re-used as the back cover illustration. Below are the pages featuring the wolf:



I didnot crop out the interior of the back cover so that you may see the whole list of titles from Pestalozzi-Verlag's 'Micky Maus Buch' series as it stood in 1970. Other titles featuring the Big Bad Wolf from this series were earlier covered in this blog and this and this posts.

Kind of an unusual ending for the wolf to inflate himself into a balloon like that though perhaps they ran out of pages for a better ending here. :-)
