"The Guess Book of Riddles, Verses, and Illustrations" by L.G. Bridgman was published by Lothrop, Lee & Shepard Company of Boston. This book, like Bridgman's other works, combines witty and playful riddles with verses and charming illustrations, making it both a game and a literary delight. The illustrations, likely done by Bridgman himself, add a visual charm that complements the riddles and verses, inviting readers or guests to solve the riddles as part of a lighthearted and intellectual social activity. This kind of book was popular in the early twentieth century, often used during social events to entertain guests and stimulate conversation. The unique combination of riddles and illustrations gives it an artistic feel, offering both a visual and mental puzzle.
