About This Item

Philadelphia: Hogan & Thompson, 1841. Second edition. Twelvemo. 189, [1] pp. Publisher's quarter black rain over marbled boards, gilt spine lettering. Most of marbled paper gone leaving bare buff boards. Some wear to spine ends. Still, a very good copy of the second edition of one of the titles in the first American juvenile series. Together with Rollo at Work and Rollo at Play; both 5th editions and both dated 1841. Both with binding issues but bindings are original. All three books are inscribed to John Elgar Hallowell by either his mother or his father. John Elgar Hallowell was the son of Benjamin Hallowell (1799-1877), renowned Quaker educator and abolitionist.
