| Object history | The verse reads: Whether you invite them or not / you are bound to have visitors / you wish to give them a treat / But you have nothing in the house / Your bread has gone stale / the cats have eaten the butter / What to do? / Run and / Buy "Teatime Biscuits". This impression may have been a printer's proof as it does not bear fold lines in the corners. |
