Bring an instant touch of classic "Dark Academia" or Grandmillennial charm to your booth with this beautiful pair of genuine antique books. Published over 115 years ago in 1907 by the Houghton Mifflin Company, these are Volumes 6 (Old Fashioned Stories & Poems) and 9 (Poems & Rhymes) from the beloved 10-volume "The Children's Hour" series.
The books feature rich, ruby-red cloth bindings with intricate blind-stamped floral borders on the front covers and elegant gold gilt lettering and rose motifs stamped on the spines. Bundled together with a lovely blue ribbon, this pair is absolutely perfect for staging a cozy vintage bookshelf, adding historical warmth to a home library, or sourcing authentic Edwardian-era poetry and typography for junk journaling and mixed-media art.
