Stories from old-fashioned children's books brought together and introduced to the reader
An 1900 London anthology by Andrew White Tuer, published by The Leadenhall Press, gathering stories from older children's books and introducing them for a general reader. The pictures are black-and-white line engravings of 18th and early 19th century figures in costume, drawn as small scenes of adults and children in conversation, with pointing gestures and period dress that a designer could use for historical characters or vintage gesture studies.
