[Rarebooks] FS: Charming Early 1800s Illustrated Friendship Album in Fine Binding

[Charles Agvent]

FRIENDSHIP AUTOGRAPH POETRY ALBUM. [Colmar, France], [Early 1800s]. 
First Edition. A lovely Friendship Album bound in full gilt-decorated 
red morocco (7-1/4" x 4-1/4") with the initials "S. K." in gilt on the 
front cover, all edges gilt. Most of the dates are circa 1815, with the 
earliest dated 1810 and the latest 1821. While there are a number of 
blank pages, the album is full of neatly written entries, mostly in 
German and mostly written in Colmar, including poetry and sentiments. 
Most interesting are the 26 illustrations, all but one hand-colored and 
one with an interesting paper sculpture over the illustration. Near Fine 
and quite charming. (#021529)        $350
