While the 1898 stories inside capture 19th-century wit, the cover of Tattle-Tales of Cupid steals the show. This #PublishersBinding was designed by Alice Cordelia Morse, a prolific Art Nouveau artist. Spot her stylized monogram at the bottom! 📚

A gem from our #rarebook room, is this #publishersbinding from 1898 focusing on the lives and labourers of prison reformers, John Howard (1726-1790) and Elizabeth Fry (1780-1845). Today, these two are most well-known as the namesakes for organizations that serve the incarcerated.

Some bright colours were used on this #publishersbinding, including some suspicious green pigments. Published in Paris in 1857, Album Poétique was written by Amable Tastu (1798-1885), a French poet and children's author who also worked in the book trade.

Published in Paris in 1858, the spines on these 3 books have suspicious green colouring suggestive of arsenic. They have been added to our list of items to test with XRF. Les saints lieux: pèlerinage à Jérusalem. #PublishersBinding #PoisonBookProject
