Charming and very hard to find early souvenir booklet titled Flowers from Mount Washington, New Hampshire, featuring original pressed flowers mounted to the interior pages. The booklet includes poetic text celebrating Mount Washington along with labeled botanical specimens (10 count) collected from the region, presented as a keepsake for visitors to the White Mountains. Such souvenir booklets were popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and were often hand-assembled, making each example slightly unique. The inclusion of intact pressed flowers adds strong visual and historical appeal, offering a tangible connection to early tourism, natural history, and Victorian-era travel memorabilia. 

 

Condition Report
Good antique condition overall. Covers show expected age-related wear and toning. Binding with original string tie remains intact. Interior pages exhibit light toning and minor spotting. Pressed flowers remain present and attached, with some natural fragility consistent with age. No major losses observed.
