Archy Somerville : and other stories
Archy Somerville and other stories is an 1856 American children's story collection published in Philadelphia by H. C. Peck and Theo. Bliss for young readers. Its pictures are small wood-engraved scenes of children at home and at play, drawn with dense parallel hatching and loose outlines that suggest mid-century domestic illustration a designer could use for vintage storybook or nostalgic period motifs.
