Uncle Ben’s Cobblestones by W. H. B. Miller | 1904

Uncle Ben's Cobblestones: Familiar Talks About Common Things by W. H. B. Miller, published by Pacific Press Publishing Association in 1904 and illustrated by P. J. Lemos.

This charming early 20th-century children's book takes the form of conversations about everyday subjects, using stories and explanations to introduce young readers to the world around them. The book is particularly notable for its extensive illustrations, including illustrated page headings and numerous smaller drawings throughout the text. The artwork gives the book a wonderful period character and makes it an especially appealing example of early illustrated children's literature.

The book is in good condition overall, with expected age-related wear. There is some wear along the edges of the spine and one loose page, but otherwise the book remains in good shape. Please see photos for full condition details.

A great addition for collectors of antique children's books, early illustrated literature, educational books, or books documenting how everyday subjects and technology were introduced to children in the early 1900s. The extensive artwork also makes this an appealing choice for anyone who enjoys vintage children's book illustration.
