A Cheap Primer for the Blind.  Louisville, Ky.: American Printing House for the Blind, 1874.

This primer is printed in large oblong format with raised-letter type known as Boston line.  AAS has some thirty titles printed in Boston line; about half of which were actually published for the blind, as opposed to providing samples of the raised text for the seeing public, making this primer quite a find.
