Verse reads:

H is for Humpty, who sat on a wall

And when he fell off--oh, my!

what a fall.

I hate to inform you what really befell,

For of poor Humpty Dumpty was left but a shell.

This is an original page from the book, not a reproduction. Gleaned from a book that was beyond repair.

Good condition with some soiling along the edges, small crease upper left corner, age toning, and 1 1/2 inch tear along the edge near the lower left corner. Also has the original holes along the left edge from the string binding.

Back is blank.

Fantastic colorful illustration that would look amazing framed, or could be used in an art project.
