[Deseret Alphabet]
Deseret Second Bok by the Regents of the Deseret Yionivursiti Deseret Alphabet Second Primer
Salt Lake City UT: Deseret University 1868. First edition. Hardcover. Very good. 72pp. Duodecimo 19 cm 1/4 brown cloth with tan illustrated boards. Illustrated. Boards a bit discolored more so the rear board. Underlying boards peeking through at the bottom fore-edge corners of the boards. Very thin cracks to the paper along the hinges. Internally exceptionally clean and bright. The Deseret Alphabet was introduced in 1854 and was created by Parley P. Pratt Heber C. Kimball and George D. Watt. Made up of thirty-eight characters to correlate with basic sounds in the English language the Deseret Alphabet was intended to be used to help simplify the principles of the English language. The creation of the language is one the more unusual ideas of Brigham Young and never was embraced in the way he thought it would be. The Deseret Alphabet was quickly abandoned shortly after Young's death. Flake 2818. [Deseret University] hardcover

[London Transport Alphabet Book]
You can reach the Heart of the Country by District Railway Tram & Motor Bus
London: The Dangerfield Printing Co. Ltd for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London 1923. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. London The Dangerfield Printing Co. Ltd for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London 1923. Duodecimo 28 pages with numerous illustrations printed in four colours. Colour-pictorial card covers slightly rubbed; small amount of red pencil scribble on the outside rear cover and some slight and inoffensive red colouring-in to the figures on the front cover; a very good copy internally fine. A charming pictorial alphabet book advertising country pleasure outings by public transport in the vicinity of London. The illustrations show two children and their aunt on such an outing with all figures stylised as wooden toys. The alphabet begins 'A is for Auntie who's so fond of Us; That she takes us for rides on the top of the Bus' and continues with rhyming couplets in a similar vein. The letterpress text gives details of return fares to Eastcote Horsenden Hill Ickenham Ruislip Southend South Harrow and Uxbridge together with details of tea rooms and resorts at those destinations. <p>The catalogue record for an example held by the London Transport Museum 1997/13265 attributes the illustrations to Violet Holdsworth. We have traced very few institutional holdings. 'Reg. No. 108-10M-5.4.23' is printed on the recto of the rear cover; we read this as indicating a print-run of 10000 copies.
