Tiny Toddlers, by Maud Humphrey. Verses by Helen Gray Cone.
Published 1890, New York by Frederick A. Stokes Company.
26 pages, all printed on one side only. Text in English. Illustrated with 6 large full page beautifully printed chromolithographic plates.

Publisher's 1/4 cloth binding, pictorial paper covered boards.

Splendid and uncommon late 19th century juvenile color plate by the mother of Humphrey Bogart who sometimes used her young son as a model.

Book is physically old and shows some mostly light signs of handling and time. Book is not new or in "new" condition like a modern book.

Binding gently age worn, spine ends frayed, board corners slightly worn down, minor edge chipping along extremities (much less than typical), mostly light or inoffensive signs of handling and time but nothing severe or unsightly, book remains overall attractive as an object.

Paper is gently toned, still clean, tight, sound internally. Nicer than typical example of a book which is relatively uncommon/ scarce on the market.

Still attractive on the shelf. The book displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive. 

Please review photos for more detail showing how this book survives. The asking price reflects the condition based on our examination and 35+ years full time exposure to antiquarian books, maps and printed ephemera of all types and genres. Flaws seen and/ or described have been taken into account.
