A pretty book. Burt stopped publishing in 1937 so this dates before then - a nicely illustrated gift edition reprint of the classic novel, maybe 1920's?

Ever heard of "local color"?

Author Annie Trumbull Slosson (1838–1926) was an important figure in the local-color movement, admired for her gifted depiction of everyday New England life.

I had another big haul from the book sale at the Public Library and once again I snagged a full Putnam collection. Behold, the 12 volume collected works of Washington Irving from 1881. #books #read #reading #antique #antiquebooks

"Death in the Clouds" - #agathachristie's 'Greatest #poirot story'!!! This is the late 1930s 'Library Edition' priced 2/6 & while still scarce its a more affordable printing to hunt for. #rarebooks, #usedbooks, #bookcollecting #antiquebooks #vintagebooks #oldbooks #bookcovers

Pre-1912 edition "Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World" by Dean Swift, with "Colored Illustrations".

That's right, Dean Swift, Jonathan Swift's middle name. There is a boy's name & 1913 written inside.

I have not found this printing anywhere. #AntiqueBooks
