Grandmamma Easy's New Stories About the Alphabet - Dean & Son - London - c. 1840s. A scarce alphabet book with 26 hand-colored engravings. Pages printed on one side, including opposite the original printed wrappers. Ads for other Dean & Son books on the rear wrapper. Sewed with thread at spine, clearly some time ago. The original was also held with thread, but not in this manner. Some staining and wear, as well as generally minor cover folding and chipping at edges/corners. Internally likely VG condition. Two pages are missing (D-F and U-W). Overall, a nice albeit incomplete copy of this very rare children's book. The book is exactly as shown. Any questions, please ask.
