Do you remember?

I assume there was a Schoolgirl's equivalent of this.  I think the Schoolboy's one was first published in 1953 and for a couple of years in the 1950s it was my version of the Encyclopedia Britannica....


I don't know if there was an American equivalent.

  1. I still have mine and have blogged about it several times I think. Particularly as I used it to learn things like the Greek alphabet. The Girls version was blue. The boys version was first published in 1951 and mine is a 1953 6th reprint. The Girls version was first published in 1952 and mine is the 1958 reprint.

  2. If there was, it was before my time. We just had the Guiness Book, and a regular encyclopedia at our house.
