Q: Hello. I have a lovely book, missing the first few pages. It is a hardbound copy of Longfellow’s EVANGELINE, A Tale of Acadia.
ALTEMUS is imprinted on the binding, there are two flowers (iris) imprinted on the front as well as fleur de lis. Are you able to give me any information on book?
Thank you for your expertise!
A: Your book is part of the Petit Trianon Series and was published in 1903-1904.
Originally it came within a labeled box. An example is shown below.
It is a reprint and missing a few pages has with no monetary value.
