| An 18 pp heavy embossed die-cut cover large format gift book. It is My Little Pansy People by Ida Scott Taylor, pictured by Frances Brundage. Raphael Tuck & Sons. No date. c1910. Charming in-text pansy people throughout including grandmothers, a monocled mustached gentleman, Fairy Auntie, Queen Scarlet, Little Snowflake, a Quaker maiden, a Soldier-blossom and more. Text in rhyming verse. Delightful! Gilt enhanced line drawn border decorations including flowers, foliage and butterflies. Measures 9 1/2" x 7 1/8". Condition: unfortunately there is a water stain at the base of the front cover and a 1/2" x 2 1/2" water stain on the lower margin throughout. The free end paper had a chip at base that had been repaired. That being said--a fine item. |
