About This Item

Mary Steichen Martin worked with her father Edward Steichen to produce this charming book, which is as the title promises "The First Picture Book." Binding tight; no extraneous marks, underlinings, or writing. Cover spine badly faded. There is a one-inch tear at the bottom of the photograph of a doll; other black and shite photographs are in very good condition. There is a colored bookplate on the first free fly leaf that seems to indicate the book was once owned by succeeding generations.
