Arithmetical Tables, for the Use of Schools

New York: Samuel S. & William Wood, No. 261 Pearl-Street, 1842. Wraps. Very good. 4 ½" x 3 ½"; 24pp; yellow paper wrapper with wood-cut decoration of a paddle-wheeler on the front and a listing of other publisher's School Books to rear; string binding; wood-cut decoration to title page; all text within double-lined wood-cut borders; light soiling to wrapper, light foxing to margins, creasing to corners; very good. No WorldCat listings for this edition. Perhaps Dr. Alexander Anderson's wood-cuts as illustrations, he worked with the firm while they were located on Pearl Street. Text includes arithmetic tables, Federal and British money information, weights and measures, time and motion, and "Tables of Money, Weights, and Measures Mentioned in the Bible". An interesting little chapbook.
