Title Miniature Album with Penwork Church on Cover Binding Wood Boards and Leather Spine Book Condition Very Good Seller ID 001870 N.d., circa 1850. The penwork impression on the front cover is of St. Andrews Church in Burnham, Somerset. This sets the tone, with 20 engraved picturesque views of Britain following, some in oval, others rectangular, with legends on the facing versos. These include Glastonbury Church, St. Donat's Castle, Carnovan Castle, Tematon Castle, Pont Aberglaslyn, the Summit of Snowden, etc. The diminuitive album is a mere 2.5 by 1.5 inches (6.5 by 4 cm). This is a lovely Victorian souvenir and pocket-sized viewbook, and quite special for the genre. The wood boards and red leather spine, plus clasp, remain attractive.
