"Blanche" (Anonymous handmade manuscript of cut-outs of magazine illustrations, loosely narrated)
np: No Publisher, 1910.
38 pp. Ruled untitled notebook with mounted illustrations on both recto and verso throughout, all with accompanying captions in manuscript. Very Good. A collection of clipped illustrations from magazines, mostly fashion-oriented, mounted in a notebook with handwritten captions, probably created ca. 1910. The illustrated notebook proceeds to tell the quaint story of "Blanche" and her numerous suitors, primarily "Clifford" and "John." The primary characters are introduced in the first few leaves, and romantic adventures ensue. Mainly set in New England, with some references to fraternity life. A few captions include: "Clifford's offering (before) he was squelched!", and "Blanche attends a costume dance." Laid in at the rear is a handful of loose clippings, so that the tale may continue.
