Miniature Hand Written ANTIQUE Fortune teller BOOK 1834 Hornellsville NY Quaker
Very Rare 4" x 5" handmade booklet written by Thirsa aka Thirya L.Grover.1836, 1837. 50 colourful pages tied with original ribbon! The booklet has two features; it begins with pages of poetry autographs to Thirsa.Dated 1836 1837, the second part approx 2/3 of the booklet consists of the MASH game numbered answers and fortune telling. MASH. A very popular game, has been played for many years. This game not only predicts the name of your future love, but also what your life with this person will be like. This is a two player game: one player will have his or her future"told" while the other player serves as the scribe, writing down pertinent information. Traditionally MASH has six categories that must be filled out. With two or more items per category. This earlier version is much more elaborate and most likely based on ... morean 18th Century version( since his one comes from so early in the 19th century. MASH is a two-player paper-and-pencil game. Commonly played by preteens intended to predict one's future. The name is an abbreviation of"mansion. Apartment, shack/street/shed/sewers, and house" 1] The game revolves around a set of headings or categories. Such as: cars, kinds of homes, spouses, pets, and how many children they will have, but many people add additional categories. MASH' is played by two players: Player 1. About whom the descriptions in the game are meant to pertain, and Player 2. Game play· The game starts by either player writing out the title MASH at the top of a piece of paper. Both players contribute to writing a list of categories in a column· Each player thinks of two items for each category. And writes them to the right of the category. If you are Player 2, it is a little comical if you put things down the other person might not enjoy. Player 2 then begins to draw a swirl. Player 1 says"Stop" At a time she chooses, and counts the number of lines in the swirl. Player 1 counts each item down the page. And crosses off the word that they land on(

Antique Miniature Book Little Leather Library "Essays" by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The Little Leather Library was the idea of 2 brothers. Charles& Albert Boni, who sold the Whitman Candy Company the idea of including one of their little books as a bonus in each box of their candy, beginning in 1916. The books were so popular they later offered a set of"Thirty World's Greatest Masterpieces" as well as a special book rack to hold people's collections. The little books. Originally with leather covers, were 3" x 3 3/4" with"rap" edges- the cover bends at the edges to protect the interior pages. The covers are embossed with the title and author's name on the front within a decorative border, and along the spine as well, with the Little Leather Library shield on the back. At some point during the First World War, due to the cost of real leather, they switched to leatherette covers. ... moreIn 1920 new owners began marketing the little books directly by mail. The shields on the back cover from 1921- 1925 are marked Redcroft Edition. Despite their popularity no new volumes were published after 1925. The books I have show signs of age which should be expected in books that are nearly 100 years old. Mostly wear to covers, and spots where they stuck together on the shelf they've sat on for the last 40 years. I do my best to describe them and point out any other problems. This is Emerson's Essays. In very nice condition. Slight wear to cover, the first 2 pages are darkened through contact with the cover; the interior pages are fine- no problems, quite light in color and perfectly legible. The binding was fine until I tried to take a picture of the first page and managed to separate the pages from the spine. The pages are firmly attached top each other. Please check my pictures carefully- I try to show condition as clearly as possible. And they are an important part of my descripton. First Class Postage in the US is $2.50. I am listing some other books from the Little Leather Library. And am happy to combine shipping. I'm happy to combine shipping costs. If
