Little Folks Library - 1928

Here are a few more recent additions to my collection of books, picked up at a household sale. I scanned in the front and back covers from six books out of a series called Little Folk's Library. Each book measures approximately 5.75" wide by 4.5" tall. They were all published by Newson & Company in 1928. I love the cover illustrations on these, with simple but bold color schemes. I particularly like the Tom Thumb one that is pictured first below. All of the books have interior illustrations as well, printed in black, white, and one additional color.
