The Legend of the Bluebonnet by Mary Daggett Lake (1926)


The Legend of the Bluebonnet
Mary Daggett Lake
(c)1926

Found this amazingly beautiful booklet in a 1875 Art Journal tome which was itself donated to the local library. In the thick book was also a hand-painted tintype. Astounding items from long ago. Like this attractive booklet produced in Texas in 1926. Hand tied blue string with color photos of a field of bluebonnet flowers throughout. A definite keeper.
