The christmas box or new year's gift.

Small 8vo. 80 pages. Numerous woodcuts. In original grey printed wraps, with cloth spine. Internally good, with some light spotting and discoloration. Binding worn and grubby; front fep splitting. Ownership inscription. Interesting and informative introduction discusses 'the advance made in less than seventy years in popular art and literature'. Publisher's note (p.xxviii), 'The letter-press of the present volume exactly reproduces that of the original Christmas Box. It has not been possible to give all the old illustrations: several have been kindly lent by the Religious Tract Society; and others of the same class have been added by the publishers from similar publications of the time.'
