| Catalog Notes | "The vain little girl[.] ... Above you see the picture of Miss Kate Tribe, she is a very pretty girl ... but few admire her on a more intimate acquaintance. ... if you want a full account of her mis-doings go to Elton's Juvenile Book Stores, 18 Division-Street, or 290 Bowery, and get a copy of 'Sketches for little girls,' with beautiful coloured plates."--advertisement, p. 23. This ad is repeated on the back cover. |
