The Land of Nod

Rochester, NY: Stecher Litho. Co, 1916. Generalized light wear. Light color offset/show through in few places. The last page and back cover missing approx. 1/4", possibly due to cutting damage, however it does not interfere with any text or illustrations.. This children's book is beautifully illustrated by Margaret Evens Price. 12 pages, with a stapled thick-card wrapper cover. The full color and three color lithographs in the book perfectly exemplify the ability of the Stecher Lithography Company.
