About This Item
Westvaco, 1971 8vo (24 cm), 106 pp. Publisher's cloth, slipcase. West Virginia Pulp and Paper Company (Westvaco) Christmas book for the year 1971. Designed by Bradbury Thompson. From the foreword: "In the 84 years of his distinguished life Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790) earned great fame as a printer, writer, editor and publisher, philosopher, inventor, scientist, public servant, politician and statesman. In this volume we have selected a range of Franklin's writings, drawing heavily on the proverbs and essays praising prudence, common sense, honesty and good health, which appeared in his 'Poor Richard's Almanac', published from 1732 to 1757. We have also included letters and essays written in the latter part of his life, which reveal the moral and mental depth of the man".
