About This Item
Reilly & Lee Co. Chicago., 1925 This is a hand made grammar school year book assembled by Betty Sturrock who attended St. Margaret School of St. Louis, Missouri. She graduated in 1931. Oblong book size about 9 by 8 inches. Bound in string tied blue cloth with front cover gilt lettering and gilt/white floral decoration--in an album format. One of those early Yearbooks where the publisher provided an outline of what to enter in the book and then the student filled-in the book in whatever manner they chose. This is a superior example of the grammar school type with student names, printed programs, writings from classmates , party invitations, fancy color printed memorabilia, photographs, various programs related to school work, and much else. About 12 photos pasted in, some with written captions. I could say this is rare, but it is actually unique, one of a kind, as are all these old hand-made yearbooks. The five photos I have included with the listing just touch on the contents. A reference book for Women's Studies showing how the young girl of the 1920's was educated. This is one volume in a collection of some 65 of these old Yearbooks ranging from the late 1800's to the 1930's mostly from the Midwest which will be in my book seller catalog titled 'Women'. Light wear. VERY GOOD Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng. Signed by Author. 1st Edition.. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket.
