A very scarce and attractive little imprint, not traced in the trade or at auction. A fascinating early American guide to making a living by fortune telling, a trade often taken up by traveling prognosticators on the Western Frontier, etc.
Anonymous. The American Fortune Teller, Containing the Art of Foretelling Events by Cards, &C. &C. With a Variety of Charms and Ceremonies to be Used on Particular Days. Fisher & Brother, Publishers.
A good copy, bound in card covers that are rubbed with losses at the hinge, but generally solid, with light foxing and some scattered stains. Very attractive.
