Vintage School Readers at Library
Claudia Chapman has put together a show of vintage school readers from her extensive collection. Some of the readers are open to Halloween pages and are displayed with vintage postcards, Edwardian era school photos and related art items. Of particular interest is a school reader from Russia, displayed on the bottom shelf. (Look for the fox!) There is a calendar displayed which was a "give-away" from book salesmen to teachers. On the top shelf a set of hard board farm animals which were used in the lower grades is on display. The show is up in the display case by the front door at the Wheeler Library for the month of October. Go. You will enjoy it.
