Description

I have what appears to be two partial books, one dated 1898, one hundred and sixtieth thousand, it is 44 pages including the covers and is missing the last page.  The other is 20 pages including the covers, it does have the last page that the other is missing.  They both have some water stains as pictured, the partial book is more stained than the other.  The covers are loose from both and they have some loose pages.
An extremely rare find from 1898, just three years after the first pieces were made.
The Colonial Book of the Towle Mfg. Co. Which is Intended to Describe Some Quaint and Historic Places in Newburyport and Vicinity and Show the Origin and Beauty of the Colonial Pattern of Silverware
