| Catalog Notes | Various fairy tales, folk tales, and fables, with no apparent collective title. Titles transcribed from captions, where available, or drawn from uniform titles where no title is available. The illustrations used in three of these titles--Little Red Riding Hood, Cock Robin, and Old Mother Hubbard--are highly similar to those issued by McLoughlin Bros. ca. 1858. Little Red Riding Hood was issued in the Miss Merryheart's series, while Cock Robin and Old Mother Hubbard were published in the Mama Lovechild's series. The flexible quality of the paper, and the typographical styles suggest a publication date from the 1850s. McLoughlin Bros. was established in 1858. Foliation: 8, 8, 8, [8], 8, 8 leaves. Issue in hand bears remnants of a paper spine (i.e., paper binding?). |
