Samuel Gifford c. 1830s Geometry School Notebook with Small Diagrams carved wooden sculpture but overall very goodThis is one of a new batch of several antique math and geometry notebooks just in from a bookseller in England whose late husband collected them, and happily so. This one is the notebook of Samuel Gifford, which I know from a few others of his dates to the 1830s or so. This one was filed half way through from one direction, then flipped and started in from the other. Sections include Geometry, Practical Geometry, Decimals & Fractions, Mensuration
