Description
This scan captures two frontmatter pages. The verso (left) is blank. The recto (right) has two sections of text. The first section, in the top left of the page, reads "The Bibelot Series." There is a small typographical decoration below it. The second section, in the center middle of the page, reads "Long Ago" followed by a subtitle in Greek: "πάλαι πστα 'Ηράµαν μέν έϒω σέθεν, ΄Ατθι, πάλαι πότα". Below this text, there is a pressed flower secured with tape in three spots on the stem. The flower appears to be light pink, but has faded over time. There is one unopened bulb beside the bloomed bulb.
