One drawing/coloring book entitled First Steps in Art, published by McLoughlin Bros., Springfield, Massachusetts, ca. 1910. This large book is 24 unnumbered pages in length, and contains drawing "problems" with instructions as well as images and scenes for coloring. The intent of the book is stated at the bottom of the title page: "In this book there are twelve simple problems in drawing for a child from five to twelve years of age; also there are thirteen interesting color pages to be painted or crayoned in five primary colors, yellow, red, blue, green and purple." The brightly colored front and back covers together form one scene of a boy and girl running through a flower garden. Printed at the bottom of the back cover is: "McLoughlin Brothers Inc. Springfield, Massachusetts, Made in U.S.A."
