Hello book addicts 🙂

I have been able to buy the book: The Beauties of Bloomerism by Deborah Dreadnought (1852). It contains 12 stunning handcoloured lithographs from different types of woman and their clothing (it's a satire about emancipation) . The images can be found online at flickr (https://www.flickr.com/search/?text=bloomerism).

I have been searching for hours but it seems to be very rare. I have been looking for prices, but can't find any. I was able to find 1 auction... in 1911, the book sold for 17 GBP.   Anybody know how many that would be today? 🙂

Anyway, I am not able to find any other for sale or sold. To me it seems the book should have some value because of the beautiful images and the subject. (early emancipation)

Thanks all for your help,

Karem.
