Recollections of Auton House ..
Recollections of Auton House is an 1889 American children's story collection by Augustus Hoppin, published in Boston by Houghton, Mifflin and Co., and written for young readers. Its pen-and-ink pictures show domestic scenes: a child in a high bed with a pillow and tangled bedclothes, a boy on a stair rail with another child below, a woman in a cap seen from behind, and a figure carrying a cat in a large apron. The hatched line work, plain interiors and clear gestures offer a designer a model for quick, economical storytelling illustration.
