Two vintage books, dating back to the 1920s and ‘30s, is a rare and special collection for any age. The first book is Black Beauty by Anna Sewell and the second is The Age Of Fable Or Beauties Of Mythology by Thomas Bulfinch.

Black Beauty is an 1877 novel by English author Anna Sewell. It became an immediate bestseller, with Sewell dying just five months after its publication. This touching portrait, full of drama and sadness, is as moving now as when it was first written.

Age of Fable was published in 1855 and is a classic work of popularized mythology, still in print 150 years later. Written to “teach mythology not as a study but as a relaxation from study,” these ageless volumes span the ages: from the Olympus of Zeus and the Valhalla of Thor, to the Round Table of King Arthur and the escapades of Robin Hood.

These books would be a wonderful addition to any book enthusiast’s collection.
