[2], 8pp, plus eight tipped in colour prints with captioned tissue-guards. Orange paper-covered boards with black lettering and decoration front and spine. 4to. Boards are worn, rubbed all round edges, rounded on corners and slightly crumbled at spine ends and slightly soiled. Some tanning and light soiling on endpapers, hint of creaminess to pages (not affecting prints). In its original red paper dust wrapper, worn to brittle, chipped in places, creased and torn on verso, cracked with some loss along a sunned backstrip.

A four-leaf typed catalogue for a specialist dealer (Paul Voorhees, The Old Print Dealer of New York) in Currier & Ives prints, not dated but apparently circa 1940, loosely laid in.

This book is the second in an important series of reproductions of the famous Currier & Ives prints, an important source for the history of 19th century America. The first, The Spirit of America, was general and introductory; those that followed, such as this one, describe specific subjects, each volume containing eight plates in full colour.
