Chicago, Illinois: Scott, Foresman and Company, 1951. Fabulous vintage Dick and Jane - an oversized folio measuring approximately 19 x 24-1/2", still in original presentation covers with attached board-stands. Three ring internal binder (as issued) with each large folio of four pictures bound together with reinforced (again, as issued) leatherette spines. Contains all 6 "stories" (a total of 24 large pictures) from the We Look and See, the beginning pre-Primer. It would appear that pages 1 and 2 - likely introduction notes, are missing - but ALL THE MARVELLOUS 1950s pages are there. And glorious they are! Clean, bright and fresh, each page has no marks whatsoever - perhaps a touch of age toning and faint signs of handling along outer page edges, otherwise truly fine. The leatherette binder/presentation folder is still in reasonable condition and has the original paste-down label on front. Spines are beginning to crack and the corners are a little bumped, but otherwise…
