One painting book entitled Young America Painting Book: for Young People with Easy Drawing Lessons, published by Platt & Nourse Co., New York, 1913. This painting book is composed of unnumbered pages containing color and outline illustrations; the latter were meant for coloring. The front cover is a chromolithograph of three children painting a mural. "Copyright 1913, The Platt & Peck Co." is printed in the lower left-hand corner of the image. The back cover is blue, and is not illustrated. The front and back pastedowns are illustrated and have been colored in with crayon. Printed on the verso of the title page is : "Copyright, 1913, by the Platt & Peck Co." This is followed by three pages containing an introduction and illustrated definitions of terms used in drawing and painting. The sample color images and those for coloring include scenes of children at play, toys, animals and flowers. Many of the images have been colored in with crayons.
