Double-Vision Multiplication Tables Card · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Double-Vision Multiplication Tables Card
Description: 1960? Russian pocket multiplication table with "stereotype" double-vision FS on the verso. $4.89 from Liuba Mateva-Dineva, Stara Zagora, Bulgaria, March, '19.

Here is one of the more unusual items in the collection. The picture side of this stiff card shows a different picture depending on which angle one uses to view it. I am not sure that "stereotype" is appropriate but the word signals at least the double views. The approach is excellent for this fable's two phases: the clever fox prevails, and then the cleverer stork repays. This fable seems to have entered Russian culture as a popularly repeated and developed folktale. The seller mistook the multiplication table on the opposite side for a calendar. A calendar would have helped in dating this unusual item!
