Description: Offered here is an EARLY (1881) children's picture book with TWENTY-TWO chromolithographic plates to illustrate the stories inside. High status Victorian homes are portrayed in detail with well-groomed children, servants, dogs, cats, horses. Furniture and clothing, table settings, parties, etc. are given full exposure. Stories are written in LARGE FONT, so small children can be actively engaged. Plates are in immaculate condition and are printed on one side only, so removal is possible for framing, if desired. Hardback cover has minor exterior wear. See photos. This is a SECOND EDITION, but buyers should know that the first edition (green cover) is selling for $254.50 on ABE books right now. I ship with care via USPS Media Mail. Book will be protected in an acid-free sleeve and foamboard will be used to support it.
