Description: Published shortly after Fowler Brothers started reading heads in NYC in 1840, with blind stamped cloth boards. Backstrip lacking. Tide stains. Owner's signature "CB Tiffany" in ornate contemporary script ghosting a pencilled shadow behind. Foxing. Significant iron staining of the text block, typical to books of the age carelessly stored for a while. Rubbing and fraying to the boards. The Fowler publishing company became the largest in New York by the 1850's and survived to the next century, churning out books, pamphlets, circulars and the like. They are also responsible for the chalk (and later glass) heads seen all over the country in antique stores and fortune tellers' parlors. The back pages of the book show a number of their publications.
