c1920 Thistle Library Robert Burns Poems & Songs Antique Mini 2vol Book Set

The Thistle Library - Burns' Songs & Burns' Poems
By Robert Burns
With Illustrations (Slipcase Included)
Published by Andersons: Edinburgh c1920 (undated)

" This charming miniature two-volume set from The Thistle Library includes Burns' Songs and Burns' Poems, both illustrated and published by Andersons, Edinburgh, Ltd. Each volume is beautifully bound in a distinctive Scottish tartan-patterned cloth with rounded corners and red page edges, presented together in their original matching tartan slipcase. Measuring only 9.5 cm tall x 6.5 cm deep x 4 cm across (total), these small-format books capture the essence of Scottish craftsmanship and early 20th-century gift publishing.

The Thistle Library series was produced between the 1920s and 1930s, featuring pocket-sized editions of classic Scottish literature. The set reflects the enduring popularity of Robert Burns (1759-1796), Scotland's national poet, whose lyrical works celebrate love, nature, and human spirit. The tartan bindings and slipcase make this pair especially appealing to collectors of Burnsiana, Scottish heritage books, and miniature literary editions.
