Have a copy of "Indian Days of the Long Ago" by E.S. Curtis-
(Yonkers-on-Hudson 1927) Indian lore and legends illustrated with photos
by the author and woodcuts by F.N. Wilson. May be a childrens book or
school text. I can't find a listing for it in any of my references. Does
anyone have an idea of its potential value? Please let me know...
Thanks!

Little Journeys - English Authors, Book 1
1899
237/947 copies, "signed" by EH. Hand-illumiated throughout and signed by
Margaret Pierce.
Cover has seen better days - tan suede is stained (or turned) green on
front and back and the leather at the top 1/4" of the spine is torn from
being carelessly pulled off a shelf. The leather is still flexible and is
not "shedding" or falling apart and the binding is still tight so I'd say
fair (at least) for the cover. Interior is VG - no foxing or browning to
deckle edges.
Authors included are Morris, Browning, Tennyson, Burns, Milton, Johnson.

$40 including postage.
