An instant library in ombré shades of pink. I bought a big lot of these children’s books, dated 1870-1920. The older books have gold leaf edges, and wonderful detailed hand printed illustrations. These would have been traditionally awarded at prize giving and certain books have the child’s handwritten name (their age) and date on the inside cover. I was thrilled to find such a large set. I can’t keep them as we have a distinct overflow of antique books already at home...so I will be selling…
