More Boxed Books-H.M. Caldwell

Most boxed individual books are rather ordinary where the labeled box contains a box that neatly fills up the box. Of course, some boxes themselves have elaborate designs and illustrations. Today I thought I would show an individual boxed book which is on the bizarre side.

As some of you may know, I am slowly working toward putting together a history and bibliography of the H.M. Caldwell publishing house. I hope to complete it before I keel over. It will take the same format as my henryaltemus.com website.

Anyway here is a Caldwell book. The box has a labeled flap but otherwise is quite plain. It measures 9.5 x 5.

The box inside however is quite unusual. It is Over the Nuts and Wine written by James Clarence Harvey. It was published in 1906. Look at its shape. It is a 3D representation of a bottle of wine within an ice bucket. The original glassine dust jacket was found within the box. This 134 page book has a different "toast" on each page.

Quite an interesting boxed book.

  2. I think what yοu publіshed was vеry logiсаl.
    Hоωеver, what about this?
    whаt if you ωrotе a catсhier title?
    I mean, I ԁon't want to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added a post title that makes people want more? I mean "More Boxed Books-H.M. Caldwell" is a little vanilla. You ought to glance at Yahoo's homе
    ρagе аnԁ see how theу cгeate nеws titlеs to get pеoρle to open the lіnκs.

    You mіght аdԁ а related vidеo
    οr a rеlatеԁ pic or two to grаb ρеоple іnterestеd abοut what
    you've written. Just my opinion, it would make your website a little livelier.

    aside from putting it around your waist.

  9. The belt operates to tighten your muscle tissues by contracting them,
    and then relaxing them, and then repeating the motion, and it targets
    all the muscle tissues in your abdominal section.
