AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Charming friendship book consisting of 124 pages, including 62 handwritten leaves written with a pen and 35 color illustrations pasted onto the facing pages. The work appears to belong to Marie Buser, with her name inscribed on the front page, followed by the date 1872.
Text in German. Pages signed by her family (Karoline Buser, Sophie Buser, Emil Buser, Martin Buser, Jakob Buser, Anna Buser) and probably by close friends (Emalina Burgi, Emma Freivbogel, Rosalie Meier, etc.) are found, decorated with some colored illustrations glued around certain words.
Bound in deep navy blue velvet, with gold fillets and corner fleurons framing the title 'Album' in gold letters. Gilded edges.
Clean surfaces and bright gilding. Fragile and worn hinge, with detached leaves and disorganized notebooks. Handle with care. Paper slightly yellowed with some scattered foxing.
Unique copy
A liber amicorum (friendship book in Latin), album amicorum (friendship album), Poesiealbum (poetry album in German), or simply a book of friendship is a personal notebook where friends' drawings, photographs, and words are collected. It is a book of a specific format, traditionally carried during a trip; friends leave a dedication and/or a token of affection on this occasion.
