Vintage (1931 and 1950) School Age Hardcover Learning Books, Spelling, Vocabulary
$19.98
I once had these both listed separately but I have combined the 2 together.
Book 1- (ORANGE) "Using Words We Need" by Lillian E. Billington, professor of Education State College, San Jose, California. Copyright 1950. Dark orange hardcover 157 pages. Cover shows a girl and a boy flying kites. My guess is it was written for elementary school age children K-6. Overall in very good shape. The binding and spine is strong. There are a few minor discoloration blemishes and there is a bubble underneath the front cover. Please see all of the pictures as I have these things pointed out.
Book 2 (BLUE)-"The New McCall Speller" Complete Course by William A. McCall Ph. D Professor of Education, Teachers College, Columbia University and J. David Houser, A. M. Research Fellow, Harvard University. Copyright 1931. Blue hardcover 160 pages. For grades 2 through 8. Overall in very good shape. There is some discoloration on the front cover, a name inside the front cover, some discoloration on pages from tape. There is a piece of paper folded into fourths and stuck into the middle of the book that has a list of words hand written on it. It being there for so many years has left a dark color stain where the note has laid. I personally like things like this. Tells a story. Gives it character. As with the other book please see all of the pictures as I will point all of these things out in them.
Capture some history! The good old days <3
