1825 · Philadelphia : Published by Morgan and Yeager, at the Juvenile Book Store, No. 279, Market street · 4 pictures

A juvenile picture book published in Philadelphia in 1825 by Morgan and Yeager at their Juvenile Book Store, explaining the coronation regalia and court costume of English kings for young readers. The pictures are faint sepia copperplate engravings of robed figures, altars and pillars, plus one hand-coloured plate of regalia and boots; a designer might take from them the clean outlined emblem style of early nineteenth-century instructional plates.
