Nice find!!! :)
(Any chance you could flip the pic so its right side up.)
Sorry I keep flipping pics right side up and they upload sideways. Ill keep working on it.
It's from the 1870s. Post 1875 as the American flag and George Washington theme on its cover would have likely come out for a celebration of our centennial since declaring independence.
The publisher removed the ampersand (&) from their name in 1885.
WOW thanks SpiritBear! strong info!!!
Wow! As it happens, this is the exact same book my wife bought over 40 years ago in a bookshop in Erie, PA! It was one of the first 'antique' things she ever bought! She still uses it for her in-home display for back-to-school.... Beautiful colors!
