EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vintage box of alphabetical cubes dating back to 1898, featuring the letter Z: Zinger on the roof. The cover of the box is beautifully illustrated by H. Roy, adding a touch of artistic flair to this historical piece. With a total of 30 cubes in the set, one face is dedicated to showcasing various metiers or crafts.
Each cube represents a different aspect of craftsmanship and labor, highlighting the importance of skilled trades during that era. From engraving to woodworking, these cubes offer a glimpse into the diverse world of artisanal workmanship.
Part of a private collection, this unique find provides insight into early educational tools and homemade learning aids from the late nineteenth century. The intricate details and design elements make it clear that great care went into creating these alphabet blocks.
As we admire this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the value placed on manual skills and traditional crafts in days gone by. This print serves as both a visual delight and a testament to the enduring legacy of handmade objects in our ever-evolving world.
