These are fun, thanks for sharing!


Edit: Well, not fun. But they are really pretty and make you feel a certain kind of way even though they're so old.

Everyone who has felt like they weren't good enough for their surroundings knows what this means. When was this made?

Amazing, still holds up even after all this time. Would she be proud of that or agitated, I wonder

That's a good observation; I hadn't noticed. 
It might have been due to the process of printing back when this was made or something to do with their process as they scanned it into the library. The book it's from is Progress and Poverty, I screen-shot this from a digital copy.
