" It is not fair on the part of a reviewer to pick out the plums of an author's book, 

 thus filching away his dream, and leaving little but skim-milk remaining; but. even if we 

 were ever so maliciously inclined, we could not in the present instance pick out all 

 Messrs. Larwood and Hotten's plums, because the good things are so numerous as 

 to defy the most wholesale depredation." The Times. 



%* Nearly 100 most curious illustrations on wood are given, showing the various 

 old signs -which wereformerly hung from taverns and other houses.
