THE HOUSE WE LIVE IN and Book of Trades THE HOUSE WE LIVE IN
and Book of Trades

Digital reprint of a Victorian child's puzzle book. [eBook edition]

 

This is a digital reprint of a rare 1902 children’s picture-puzzle toy book. The House We Live In and Book of Trades illustrates in color the various rooms of a Victorian house (parlor, dining room, nursery, kitchen, etc.).  Spaces are left blank and the reader is directed to cut out pieces from the accompanying color sheets and place them on the color pages to complete the scenes.

 
 

 

Furthermore, the second half of the book shows various Victorian trades at work (carpenter, mason, watchmaker, druggist, ship builder) in scenes designed to be completed by cutting out and applying the correct pieces.

In addition, each scene is accompanied by a short tale or poem about the room of the Victorian house or the job of the tradesman.

 

A long lost treasure!

Find beautiful color images - as sharp and clear as when originally published - of this rare picture book. It is impossible to find this type of children’s book intact and undamaged because the main purpose of the toy was to cut out the pictures and paste them on other pages.

A great holiday gift!

Print the pages in color on cardstock paper, bundle together with a colorful ribbon to give to that special child as a holiday gift. This book would be a wonderful surprise for an "American Girl" doll lover.
