The text and pictures originally appeared in A treasury of pleasure books for young children (1850), edited by Joseph Cundall. Cundall states, "'The story of the three bears' is a very old nursery tale, but it was never so well told as by the great poet Southey, whose version I have (with permission) given you, only I have made the intruder a little girl instead of an old woman. This I did because I found that the tale is better known with Silver-Hair, and because there are so many other stories of old women."--p. [v] of an 1853 issue of A treasury of pleasure books for young children. McLoughlin Bros. published in New York from 1858 until 1920, when the company was sold to Milton Bradley, and moved to Springfield, Massachusetts. Typography and illustrations are characteristic of McLoughlin Bros. books issued ca. 1858-1867. In printed wrapper. "Illustrated with six drawings by Harrison Weir. Engraved by W.G. Mason and Greenaway & Wright."--illustration statement, 1850 issue of The story of the three bears, in an 1850 issue of A treasury of pleasure books for young children. Engravings in that issue are identical to the engravings in the issue in hand. "The history of Little Bo-Peep."--in verse, p. [15-16]. Publisher's advertisement, p. [4] of wrapper, includes ads for Aunt Mary's little series, Sunshine series, Aunt Grumble's series, Uncle Frank's series, Mother's series (new), and Aunt Effie's 12mo. toy books. |
