This rare and completely preserved copy of the Verkade Picture Album 2 from 1904 is a remarkable piece of Dutch cultural history. The album is part of the famous Verkade album series, with which the Verkade company brought art, nature, and education into the home in an accessible way at the beginning of the 20th century.

This is the second edition in the series, featuring all the original pictures that could be collected and pasted into Verkade products at the time.

The beautifully rendered color illustrations showcase the characteristic style of the period, with meticulous attention to detail and true-to-life reproduction. This album is not only a beautiful collector's item but also a valuable document of an early marketing and art historical phenomenon in the Netherlands.

A complete copy from 1904 is extremely rare and is a wonderful addition for collectors of Verkade, historical printing or Dutch nostalgia.

Given its age and the fact that the first three Verkade albums were made of relatively low-quality paper, the album has some damage, as can be seen in the photos. All pages are securely in place and not loose. The cover is still attached and is in good condition. The lettering is mostly legible. There is some paper damage near the face and a few small spots on the front cover.
