Auburn, Maine: The Author, 1882. First edition. Hardcover. Good. 8vo, 6 x 9.5, xvi + 620 pages, with tweny-six tipped-in plates. Binding is tight, except front hinge is loose and a few of the tipped-in plates are detached (but present and in place). There is some water staining on the back cover and at the top of approx. six pages, else the interior is clean with nominal toning. This genealogy, with many interleaved illustrations, offers a history of the Little family from George of Newbury, the immigrant ancestor, through nine generations of his descendants, in both male and female lines. Almost all the first three generations lived and died in Newbury, Massachusetts. Through the end of the eighteenth century (i.e., ca. 1800), we rarely find the family beyond the bounds of Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. Within the next eighty years, the family could be found in nearly every state and territory of the Union. Of the 6500 descendants mentioned in the compilation, nearly 3000… Read More

Description:
The Debutante Register: 1945. This is a rare book. A large register of women who made their "debut" into society between 1943-1945. Some skipped their Debutante Ball due to the war. There is a photograph of each woman, and underneath is their name, who their parents are, where and when they held their debut, and a couple sentences about their education or their family history. Included amongst the women in this book is SHIRLEY TEMPLE! Her debut lists "cancelled due to the war." There are multiple signatures on the forward page, and I'm not sure if this book is signed or if the signatures were printed on from the originals. Please see photos. * The pages of the book are in great condition. It is just the cover that is not in great shape. **5% of this sale will go towards the fight against racial injustice.
