Still More Miscellaneous Bloopers
This page contains a selection of miscellaneous, authentic, unconsciously humorous test answers, gathered from a best-selling compilation by Viking Press published under the pseudonym of Alexander Abingdon in 1931. The selected extracts, edited and rearranged, are reproduced for readers in countries where the book is in the public domain, which, to the best of our knowledge, includes Australia (because more than 70 years have passed since the book's publication and because the so-called anonymous rule applies). For other countries, please check your local copyright laws.
