| A set of 24 of 26 Victorian Scrap or Relief alphabet or ABC occupational die-cut figures circa 1880. Each figure measures approx 5 3/4" high and has an associated small scrap with an alphabet letter and verse describing the character. The smaller scraps would have originally been connected with a ladder (or paper strip) to the character. Examples include E was an Earl with pride on his brow, M was a Miser, who hoarded up gold, Z was a Zany, who looked a great fool. Delightful examples of Victorian characters. Condition: lacking the small scrap for "L" presumed Lady, and both characters and small scraps for N & S. Overall light wear. Vibrant color. A scarce group of Victorian ABC or alphabet scrap depicting life at the time. |
