Thanks, Marie. I got an email from a high school student this morning, he was interesting in becoming a bookmark collector... so I thought I'd post one today.
I used to work on 20th St. between 5th Ave and 6th Ave, so the address on this one made me smile. The H O'Neill & Co. building then and now (it's expensive condos now): http://digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/id?809779
Beautiful!

ReplyDeleteDo you have any idea where 'the People's Library' is?
ReplyDeleteKatsenne, The People's Library was a line of affordable editions of popular fiction from the early 1900s. Like today's Dover Thrift editions.
