Vintage Book.. Little Leather Library... HIAWATHA VOL. II By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

This little leather miniaturized book has an embossed green leather cover. It was published by LITTLE LEATHER CORPORATION, NEW YORK. This is a Redcroft Edition. These little leather books were originally designed for WWI Soldiers because they could easily be carried by the troops and fit into a shirt pocket. Later these miniaturized books were sold through mail order or at drug store counters during the 1920’s. They were very popular because of their small easy to carry rectangular 3” x 4” x ¼” thick approximate size.. The front cover of this book reads "HIAWATHA VOL. II LONGFILLOW". The back cover center has a large “L” that is the beginning letter for “LITTLE LEATHER LIBRARY”. This book says "THE SONG OF HIAWATHA HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW VOL. II" on the title page. This book is in good vintage condition with some pages being yellowed or worn and some scuffs, wear and chips to the edges of the leather binding (see photos). There are no missing pages and all pages are very readable.
