Wee books of long ago
Wee Books of Long Ago is a set of small children's books compiled by Wilbur Macey Stone and published in New York in 1909 for young readers. Its pictures are small, crisp black-and-white woodcut-style prints of battles, a biblical death scene, a ship with cargo, and a bow-carrying figure, with plain outlines and dense hatching a designer could borrow for simple, historical-looking line art.
