Antique 1888 PT Barnum’s Circus Text & Illustrations Arranged for LITTLE PEOPLE. Color lithographed paper over boards, beautifully illustrated with full color plates and many black and white illustrations. Phineas Taylor Barnum, usually referred to as P. Barnum (1810 – 1891) was an American showman, politician, author, publisher, philanthropist and businessman. And all the gilding shall make nothing else of me. Told in the form of a story for children, this stunning and scarce book showcases many of the acts, animals, and curiosities that appeared in Barnum’s circus. We do not monitor inquiries Saturday, Sunday or holidays. We source from estates in San Francisco California and therefore have limited knowledge as to the past life of listed items. Unless otherwise noted, electronic items will be tested to power on. We love happy customers!
