Published by DAVID OGILVY at his Repository for Rational Toys and Amusements. Designed and lithographed by G. E. MADELEY, 3 Wellington Street, Strand. Size 18 ½ in X 18 ½ in, hand-coloured in parts, mounted in 9 sections on linen, folded into hinged covers, cloth-covered, with title in gilt. The rules are pasted inside the cover. The race course has 6 tracks, each of a different colour, regarding which the publisher announces: “Caution-The Publisher begs to state that the plan of marking by STRIPES of colour as used in the present game, and also in ‘Peter Puzzlewig’s Game of Learning to Spell' is copyright, and therefore cannot be applied to other games, either in circles, ovals, parallel lines, etc., without his consent.” The game is undated, but as the rules refer to “Her Majesty’s Cup”, "The Prince of Wales Cup" and “The Prince Albert's Cup”, it is presumably early Victorian.
