Description:

This volume contains a rich compilation of these illustrations-over 340 copyright-free vintage cuts and vignettes gathered from many rare original copies of children's publications from the turn of the century to the 1920s. For her third Dover compilation, Judy M. J ohnson, an artist herself, has selected these graphics with an expert eye for their imaginative qualities, charm and usefulness.
Conveniently arranged by category, the illustrations include fantasy and storybook characters, favorite animals, parties and celebrations, outdoor fun, the circus, seasonal and holiday themes and much more. Moreover, the motifs appear in a wide range of configurations: spot illustrations, mortised cuts, a multitude of borders and banners and other formats.
