with interlocking wooden pieces that fit together to form a rectangle

bringing her back a sack full

just this lone actor creating a world

Greenleaf's New Primary Arithmetic, 1880, with Best Counting Graphics early gameboard with interlocking wooden pieces thatSo many antique school books to love. In the case of this 1880 copy of Greenleaf's New Primary Arithmetic, it is all about the graphics for me. How much more fun to learn to count when one is counting crossed umbrellas and raised hands and flying butterflies and buzzing bees. And that page of pears lined up neatly in incremental rows completely does it for me. Charming all the way through, photos give a representative sense. 6 3 4" x 4 3 4", 104
