Print: Joseph Mansell – These were published in ‘Spring Buds, Summer Flowers, Autumn Leaves, and Winter Berries' by Mrs Upcher Cousens’ in 1859 and also sold separately by Mansell. The above titles are printed in the border under the prints. In the book they then have rather ‘strange’ titles: Heedless Patty (Spring) - Kitty's Birthday (Summer) - Bees and Butterflies (Autumn) - Frank's Holidays (Winter). I haven’t seen a copy of this book but these later titles might have been used to tie them in with the storylines in the book
