(Old Books, 19th Century Books, Games, Children's Games, Handmade Books, Indian Penny, Lina Hunt).

A Penny for Your Thoughts - November 21, 1893.
Assembled November 21st, 1893, United States by Lina Hunt.
3 circular sheets, still joined by a string tie which has an 1893 Indian Head penny and a tiny pencil. Handwritten text in English.

A numismatic novelty and likely one which is utterly unique.

Hand assembled and created children's game, with 1893 Indian Head penny & small pencil attached with binding string. Penny has a tiny hole but remains in nice shape, probably close to uncirculated since it was affixed to the novelty the same year it was issued. Some original patina on the coin, still reflective in recessed areas.

Novelty is physically old and shows some signs of handling and time. Book is not new or in "new" condition.

Paper is gently toned, still clean, tight, sound internally.

The item 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 novelty 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.

Book Measures c. 4 1/2" H x 4 1/2" W.
