Contemporary red morocco, richly tooled in gilt and blind, lettered in gilt 'Tales and stories' to upper board, A.E.G. A trifle rubbed and marked. Internally clean and crisp. An attractively bound sammelband of sixteen diminutive chapbooks intended for a juvenile readership. The titles within, all illustrated with crude yet charming wood-engravings, include staples of the Victorian street literature market; compendious retellings of perennially popular nursery rhymes such as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and the Children in the Wood. An exception is a remarkably rare version of a recherchà didactic verse curiosity, The Waggon Load of Gold. Issued in two, seemingly separately published parts; the work is comprised of a total of sixteen unassociated stanzas calculated to amuse the young reader, and each - unusually for chapbook fare of the era - accompanied by illustrations which actually relate to the text; for example, the opening couplets of the second part, a celebration of the library, is partnered with a depiction of a bookcase: 'The chief prize of the whole, Here you now may behold, 'Tis a library of choice books, From the Waggon Load of Gold.' OCLC records a single copy of The Waggon Load of Gold. Part II. at Richmond Public Library, Virginia (Part I. is apparently unrecorded). The copy retains the original publisher's wrappers bearing the imprint 'London: Printed and published at 60, St. Martin's Lane', with the date recorded as '1820'. This would suggest that the other titles contained within this sammelband - all printed on similar paper stock, and some reusing woodcut ornaments - where issued contemporaneously from the same location.…
