Aldrich, Thomas Bailey, 1836-1907 · 1902 · Boston, CT : Hall and Locke · 155 pictures

A children's literature anthology published in 1902 by Hall and Locke in Boston, compiled under the name of Thomas Bailey Aldrich for young readers. The pictures are small black-and-white wood engravings of animals in woods and open country, with rough hatched line and plain borders. A designer could take from them the loose, scratchy line of nineteenth-century vignette art, suited to fable-style or nature-themed illustration.
