First published in HOLIDAY MAGAZINE, this story was also among those collected in AMPHIGOREY. For such a simple premise, the story feels action packed, as a ceaselessly well-dressed family watches Its descent from various rooms, vantage points, and times of day. Bibliography Toledano notes the printed copyright date of 1964, but that the book was not actually published until 1965. 6'' x 5''. Original color pictorial wrappers. Illustrated by Gorey with full-page black and white images facing each page of text.
