Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 12mo. (17 cm.) unpaged [32p.]. Highly decorated throughout in light green and gold with illuminated initials, borders and decorations--all done in the Art Nouveau style. Tan wrappers fold in around the stiff covers of the book and the whole is tied with a green silk ribbon. Front wrapper has a l…ovely vignette of a flower flanked by two stylized flowers which provide a field for the title. The colored flowers appears to be hand colored. Laid in is a book mark touting the quality of Dodge books and imprinted with the Dodge logo, which is a combination of the most ancient trade-marks in the history of printing art, having been adopted by Julian Notary in 1498 and by John Byddell in 1535. The whole is finely printed on heavy paper stock. Wrappers ever so slightly soiled, green ribbon more or less intact, some transfer throughout from rich decorations, else near fine with no internal markings. The booklet consists of sayings from various persons, e.g., Robert Louis Stevenson, Phillips Brooks, Josiah Gilbert Holland, Carlyle, A.B. Hegeman, Charles Kingsley, Bronte, Elizabeth Barret Browning, Henry Van Dyke, George MacDonald, and Longfellow.
