Mastiff dog book: Rab and His Friends by Dr. John Brown published between 1907-1912. A rare find! This is an envelope book. Envelope books were published in the U.S. between 1907-1912. They came with wrappers which had Christmas greetings on them and were designed to be sent instead of greeting cards. The envelope books are soft cover books shaped like a standard envelope. The illustrations in this edition are from water color paintings by Hannah Clarke Preston Macgoun (1864-1913), a well known Scottish artist. The book was printed shipping by Neill and Company, Ltd., Edinburgh, but was distributed in the United States by George W. Jacobs and Company, Philadelphia. This is a fabulous collectible book for anyone who loves, Mastiffs, dogs or antiquarian books!
Description: Pages inside are in excellent condition with no tears or marks. The book was printed on high quality paper. The soft cover has some wear and a tear at the bottom of the spine, but it is complete (nothing is torn off of it). There is a stain on the back cover (see last photo). The front of the cover is loose. The book measures 6 5/8 inches by 3 5/8 inches. There are 48 pages. All pages are well attached except for the title page which is not attached at the top half. Looks very good for a soft cover book which is at least 107 years old!
