Description: "The Big Golden Book of Poetry". Collection of 85 Childhood Favorites. (See pic 6 for complete list.) Edited by Jane Werner with illustrations by Gertrude Elliott. Originally published in the late 1940's, this is the Special Scott, Foresman and Company Edition for the Invitations to Personal Reading Program. Undated, but has a "School Committee City of Boston" label on the front pastedown (inside cover), which has "1966" written in the "when received" box (pic 4). This is a matte (not glossy) hardcover with cloth-reinforced binding (constructed for anticipated heavier use). In Acceptable to Good Vintage condition. No markings other than previously mentioned label. Pages mildly age-toned with a few crinkles and smudges; a couple very short closed tears (no material missing).
