"Published circa 1880 by Frederick Warne & Co. of London, Aunt Louisa's Coloured Gift Book - Our Favourites is a charming Victorian children's volume illustrated with rich chromolithographs printed by the celebrated firm of Kronheim & Co. This beautifully produced gift book gathers three beloved nursery tales—Cock Robin's Life and Death, Dame Trot, and Punch and Judy—each accompanied by full-page colour illustrations from original designs. The vivid plates and ornate typography reflect the high standards of Warne's late 19th-century publishing, designed to delight young readers while showcasing the era's most advanced colour-printing techniques.

A fine example of Victorian moral and entertainment literature for children, this edition captures the innocence and humour of classic nursery lore with exceptional visual charm. Its combination of early chromolithography, nursery rhymes, and folklore makes it a prized collectible for enthusiasts of antique children's books, Victorian illustration, and the works of Frederick Warne & Co."
