A collection of twenty-two literary manuscripts by various writers, comprising nearly half of the content of The Keepsake for MDCCCXXXI.

Contributers include Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Lady Blessington, L.E.L., and over a dozen others. Bound in brown half morocco over marbled boards, with spine-titling in gilt; endpapers are watermarked "1834." With the ex-libris of Roderick Terry on the front paste-down.

1 volume (230 leaves); 26 cm.
