Description: Lovely Vintage Copy A Book Of Verses For Children! EV Lucas Editor! No Date.. Here is a lovely vintage copy of A Book Of Verses For Children compiled by Edward Verrall Lucas. This is a hardcover edition published without a date by Henry Holt And Company very early in the 1900s or late 1800s. The front illustrated board is so emblematic of the age of innocence. The black and red colors still stand out and there is a rubbed line across the bottom which takes away very little of the appeal. The spine has darkened over time and has rubbing itself yet remains fully legible as shown. The rear panel is really quite beautiful in it’s simplicity. Inside the front board is a bookplate from The University Society of New York and a small circular sticker with V20 ( volume 20 I would imagine) so for all intents and purposes this is an ex library book but from a “private” library. I truly don’t believe this book was ever in public circulation based on it’s condition. The binding is square and tight and immaculate throughout. I’ve included some of the poems included and a few of the corners and spine. A lovely copy for the vintage book collection. Please see all pics and ask any questions you may have and as always I never list ex public library books or book club editions so buy with confidence. And please check out my 100% positive seller feedback!!! Thanks for looking.
