Lot of 3 Antique Scrapbooks, Illustrations, Magazines. This is a lot of three incredible antique scrapbooks from the late 19th century with content sourced from various illustrations and publications. The first scrapbook is a pastel blue color, with a scalloped border and ornamental details on the cover. The pages contain imagery of women, children, flora, and fauna, as well as what looks to be advertisements from an "Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co." The second scrapbook, which has a dark red cover with flowers, a bird, and some sort of lettering, has more imagery of women, children, plants, and animals inside. It has a stamp on the back cover that says "Pat. May 22, 1883." The third scrapbook is white with a peacock, peacock feathers, and flowers on the cover. On the inside, it has very similar imagery to the two previous scrapbooks. These three scrapbooks are unique traces of the past, and are a must for any lover of antique books and illustrations.

Dimensions of the smallest scrapbook are 12 in h x 9.5 in w x 2 in d. Dimensions of the largest scrapbook are 17 in h x 14 in w x 2 in d. Condition is fair. The scrapbooks are falling apart, especially at the spine. The paper is fragile. Some images are stuck to one another. Please call or email for a detailed condition report.
