found...

about 30 years ago we bought several lots of beautiful old books at an estate auction...there were about 200 books and misc. stacked in turn-of -the-century wooden crates w/ shoe advertising on the outside...the books and wooden crates were sold long ago but this little gem ended-up tucked away in a junk drawer till today...
