and Observations Literary

Sammy Tickletooth ABC on Linen c.1870’s McLoughlin color litho picture book Eurasia 11 1/2" H x 8Book is a well age worn and much loved example. How you might expect a book mad for children 150 years ago to look. Published NY, McLoughlin Brothers, c. 1865 75. 12 pp. [counting covers], original string tied binding so inherently fragile. Much browsed and handled survival, spine paper splitting as typical, original string tied binding intact, covers and pages loosened, assorted small age soiling, various signs of time and handling.
