VICTORIAN deep red velvet album with embroidered pink floral bouquet front, colored floral design pages inside with photo ovals. It is 5" by 6" by 2" and would hold 36 photographs, half of which are wonderfully illustrated with colorful florals. Inside this album came a small letter dated Sept. 14 /66 and speaking of traveling to English cities and signed by Jenny Cookson. This is in excellent condition with slight coloring on the pages from age, but the paper inside is brittle and I think inserting photographs might damage them.   View   View   View   View   #V32230
