<p>[QUOTE="mmarco102, post: 2771900, member: 8289"]Acquired this American Tract Society little book. The printed address help me date it to mid 1800’s. 150 Nassau St New York. Interestingly that was next door to Currier & Ives address of 152 Nassau st. in the same dates. Curious if some of their same artist did a Little of Gods, side work for their neighbor <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" />. This is about the same size of a cigarette box and half the thickness 4”X3”. Can not find any information on this book with the collection of tracts, but most of the individual stories can be traced to the late 18th/early 19th. There’s a pencil written name on front page “Kellie”. Just wanted to share and see if any more information can be dug up.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]279514[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279515[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279516[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279517[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279518[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279519[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279520[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279521[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279522[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
