OBI Scrapbook Blog

A collection of vintage illustrations, taken from books published between the 18th century and the first quarter of the 20th century.
Unlike the pictures from the main site, these ones don't belong to me, and I don't own the originals. While most of them are in the public domain, it doesn't imply that they are all free to use for commercial purpose. Please read the terms of service of the source site before incorporating them into your projects.

Un florilège d'illustrations anciennes, extraites de livres publiés entre le XVIIIe siècle et le premier quart du XXe siècle.
A la différence des images proposées sur le site principal, les originaux de celles-ci ne m'appartiennent pas. Bien que la plupart soient aujourd'hui dans le domaine public, cela ne signifie pas pour autant que leur réutilisation à des fins commerciales soit toujours autorisée. Veuillez donc prendre connaissance des conditions d'utilisations des sources citées avant d'intégrer ces images à vos projets.

There was a young lady who said
“I seldom wear hair on my head,
I carry my locks about in a box,
For such is the fashion,” she said.

From The new book of nonsense, published by Ashmead & Evans, Philadelphia, 1864.
