As far as I know this bibliography was not subsequently revised.

Legman cannot resist adding acerbic comments to some of the entries, in one of which which he calls Heerwart's book, 'The end-point of the sterile complexity of theFroebel folds', clearly betraying his failure to understand the Froebelian emphasis on experiment and creativity.

Legman sent a copy of this work to Robert Harbin on 8th April 1955. (Information from Laura Rosenberg.) Harbin subsequently used it as the basis of a bibliography in his book 'Paper Magic', published in 1956.

Legman also gifted a copy to Lillian Oppenheimer in 1957 (see below).
