1887 edition Sunday at Home annual, magazine compilation, art nouveau embellishment, eclectic stories, articles, Victorian sensibility, rare

Inscription: Mamma, love Alice, Christmas 1887

Here is the 1887 annual edition of "The Sunday at Home". it is a compilation of The Sunday at Home periodicals for that year.
It isn't the religious tome one imagines with the title. It is actually an interesting approach to the gentler preaching of teaching by demonstrating.
Lots of stories, articles about other lands, chock fill of illustrations and some really interesting self reflection stuff. You can't have too much self reflection.

It measures 8 by 11 by 1.75 inches and is in great condition. It is substantial and heavy.


I recently purchased the small items from the Estate of a family who owned and operated a variety of enterprises in a town famous for its tall ship building. The ships would sail the world and bring back treasures from the continent and eastern seaboard. The Victorian home was filled with these magnificent finds, added to over the decades by other generations.
I am up to my ears in magnificence.
Victorian, Edwardian, the 20's, 30's 40's and 50's....all under one large roof.
Because the items were bought from the owners, the items have not been picked over in antique shops or (shudder) thrift stores. This is a rare opportunity to own something, well, rare.
And no, I don't actually want to sell any of it.

Make every day a special occasion.

What goes around, comes around
Love of beauty and quality is happiness
