The library at work and play
A 1912 handbook of children's handicraft and home amusement by Cheshire L. Boone, issued by Doubleday, Page in Garden City, New York, for parents and teachers organizing boys' and girls' manual work. Soft-grained halftone photographs show school garden plots, shingled houses behind hedges, and cluttered basement workbenches with hand tools on racks, several carrying long italic captions set under the plate as part of the image block.
