ANOTHER GREAT
This lot comprises two vintage bound volumes. The first is a “Portfolio of Photographs of Famous Scenes, Cities and Paintings,” prepared under the supervision of the distinguished lecturer and traveller John L. Stoddard, and published by The Werner Company of Chicago. This volume contains an elaborate collection of black and white photographic views from Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, North and South America. It is bound in dark blue or black cloth with gilt lettering on the cover. The second item is a “BOY’S OWN ANNUAL” from 1880, presented in a hardcover binding with a brown leather or faux-leather spine featuring gold tooling and the imprinted year “1880.” Its interior pages contain text and detailed engraved illustrations typical of a late 19th-century periodical.
