One of three 1870s notebooks today from a George Abbott of Boston, MA, this one a "Model and Object Drawing No. 2" notebook published by L. Prang and Company (perhaps best known as a maker of geometric solid blocks) in 1875. Drawing lessons throughout, with top and left hand of the pages printed, and right hand left empty for the student to complete the drawing lesson. Happily, George completed the majority of the lessons, in graphite, very beautifully! Nice as a bit of art eduction history, and also just a lovely thing. 

 11 3/8" x 8 1/8". 10 pages plus cover, almost all with drawing lessons completed or partially completed. Copyright 1875. All in good condition.
