One drawing book entitled Elementary Drawing Book; A Series of Easy Progressive Lessons For Young Beginners, New and Improved Edition, No. VIII, by George Childs, published by David Bogue, London, ca. 1875. This drawing book is comprised of four lithograph plates, numbered 25-28. The title and publisher's information on the front cover are framed by a floral, decorative border. "Price nine pence" is printed in the upper right hand corner, opposite the volume number. "B. Clarke, Printer" is printed in the lower left-hand corner of the front cover. At the bottom of the first plate is printed "Tilt & Bogue, Fleet Street, London. J.R. Jobbins, Zinco." Each of the four plates are untitled and contain two separate views per leaf, side by side. Some of the views include human figures. There are no textual instructions, and there is no space provided for copying. The back cover is a publisher's advertisement for "New and Superior Drawing Books".
