Description: 1900s TRUE STORIES OF THE OLDEN DAYS Children's Book, BLACKIE & SON Click images to enlarge Description ANTIQUE CHILDREN'S BOOK Wonderful antique hardbound children's book titled TRUE STORES OF THE OLDEN DAYS ~ A Picture Book For Little Folk measuring about 10-1/4" by 7-3/4" at about 20 pages (unpaginated). Featuring a front board decorated with a beautiful image of a knight in shining armor, interior center is fitted with a two-page color illustration of Richard The Lionhearted at the Holy Lands. Published by BLACKIE AND SON LIMITED ~ London Glasgow and Bombay, it is filled with a variety of two-page short stories written to entertain, but not overwhelm a younger child -- black and white illustrations fill almost every page - subjects run towards war heroes, including A Brave Queen (Boadicea); King Alfred; Canute; Brave Men of Calais; Wat Tyler; and Joan of Arc. Condition is good with cracking to the binding so that the book will lay flat - all pages are still attached, but spine is rather weak - illustrations are without coloring, writing, tears, holes, foxing or damage - light soiling/dots of staining from little fingers turning the pages and a hint of toning - none of this detracts -- front board points are worn and back bears staining as shown. Just a wonderful, early children's book - an informative, education read and a fun addition to any collection or display! If questions, please contact me - thanks! Pictures sell!
