The Cooking School and Other Stories, by Emma E. Brown.
Published 1880, Boston, by D. Lothrop & Company.
28 pages. Text in English. Illustrated throughout.
Interesting and uncommon culinary-related cover for this 19th century juvenile.
Illustrated chromolithographed paper covered boards.
Binding shows signs of age and handling, some edge chipping, still nice looking example of this scarce item.
Text block paper uniformly strongly age toned due to acidic newsprint paper used, some pages now loose.
Book remains well preserved and attractive on the shelf. It displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in nice antiquarian condition, the age flaws easy to overlook or forgive.
