Oh, the possibilities!


I've been wondering what to do with this little book for quite some time. I've researched it several times, but have not found it anywhere online. It's two stories in one book: Bessie's Visit and All the Greys. It's hard to tell by looking at it, but there has to be a page missing as there are no names for the author or illustrator (there are some darling little sketches that would make wonderful vintage stamps!) The copyright is 1880 - old enough for me to be able to use the little picture, so I have been cleaning up the scan, and may make a card with it. The gold cover is also intriguing; it would make a unique journal, but I can't bear to tamper with it. Hmmmm....
