‎A lovely copy of this miniature book of values and calculations. Neat and tidy green buckram with gilt titles and price to the front board. All edges gilt. A fractional bumping and rubbing only. Yellow end papers. Title and tables throughout are printed in red and black. Clean, but with a little foxing throughout. Unpaginated, but with collation by number rather than letter. Our copy has 1-8³ leaves, so 70 pages. The preface states "This little book has been compiled for the use of Housekeepers, and will be appreciated by all who take an interest in an economical expenditure." Finishes with a page showing avoirdupois weight and long measure. 8.5 cm x 5.5 cm (3Œ by 2Œ inches). We are unable to find this work in WorldCat / FirstSearch, and can only find another copy with one colleague.‎
