? 1860 antique MINIATURE DAILY FOOD FOR CHRISTIANS bible w/PATRIOTIC BOW+FABRIC
Nice little book but what is more rare is the piece of plaid period cloth and the tiny fabric red,white and blue ribbon that is well preserved and kept inside the book. There is also a small red white and blue paper with verses as you can see in the photograph.
Book measures approx 2.5" x 3" and text is complete. Front endpapers are removed and missing. It is missing it's spine.
Undated book. Likely from the 1860's or even earlier.
Original stamped name in the book is Sarah Moore with a patriotic eagle ink frame.
Since both the stamp is patriotic and ribbon is patriotic, I think this would be civil war or earlier era.
A later inscription is dated 1907 Mrs. david Yeager, Montandon North Co. Pa.
