Toys of Other Days, a book by Mrs. F. Nevill Jackson, was published in 1908 and looks at toys from days gone past. The digitized PDF version shared in this post was created by Google as part of their, “ongoing effort to preserve the information in books and make it universally accessible.”

The book found its way here to Playvolution HQ by way of my Child Care Bar And Grill podcast partner, Lisa Murphy. She found a copy in a used book store when it called to her from the shelves. We discussed the book in three episodes of the podcast, starting here.
