AUNT JO'S SCRAP BAG. Six volume Set, Complete . My Boys, Etc.; Shawl-Straps; Cupid and Chow-Chow, Etc.; My Girls, Etc.; Jimmy's Cruise in the Pinafore, Etc.; An Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving, Etc. by Alcott, Louisa M(ay) - 1882

1882 The Six-volume set complete. Uniformly bound in the original olive cloth with brown and gilt titles and blimd-stamped decorations. Each book has markings from a rural NH (Abbie Greenleaf in Franconia, NH) library that include a small stencil 'A' on the spines, Very attractive bookplate of the Greenleaf's designating this/these book(s) to the library in the name of the library's namesake's Abbie & Charles Greenleaf. An attractive and large bookplate featuring the famed 'Old Man of the Mountain' with the Profile Lake in the foreground. Charles Greenleaf was proprietor of the Profile Hotel on the shore of that lake, in Franconia Notch, NH, for many years. Another bookplate in the rear showing the book's signing out by penciled in number that belonged to the patron. These , and many others, were put and stored in the attic of the library likely since the new wing was built in 1964/5, possibly before. I resqued many them last winter during a sale. A nice set. Good Condition with mild to moderate wear. .
