Harry Hootman created a db of Faxon's print index of British & Am literary annuals for his dissertation, published it on a personal website, and created a boon of info. He passed away unfortunately and his website disappeared but I've got the data.

Building a spreadsheet of every pg in 83 vols of literary annuals w/ 300-400pp, 40 to 50 literary texts & 10 to 12 engravings. Stumbled on this engraving in 1833 Forget Me Not. Accompanying short story =ekphrastic rendering of engraving. Never seen a Black woman portrayed in this way in annuals 🤯
