Juvenile Miscellany Antique Book
Volume 5
Undated but magazine was only in publication from 1826-1836. If the Volumes go by years then it would date to 1831.
6” x 3.5” x 1”
The book is in good condition considering it is 200 years old. The cover shows some wear but is minor. Hinges are good. There is some discoloration and spotting throughout. I could only find one for sale and it was in poor condition.

The magazine's content emphasized middle class values. It featured poems, stories, puzzles, and informative articles. The magazine provided amusement and imparted moral lessons while avoiding shops the piety so common in children's literature of the period.
