Author: ROBINSON, Helen M., MONROE, Marion, ARTLEY, A. Sterl, et al. Title: The New Guess Who
Description: Chicago, Scott, Foresman and Company, 1965. Hardcover. 8vo. Pictorial cloth. 96pp. Numerous color illustrations. Very good. Abrasion near bottom of each pastedown. A tight and nice first edition of this "Junior Primer" in "The New Basic Readers Curriculum Foundation Series" -- one of the very first Dick and Jane titles to feature African-American characters, both on the front board and in illustrations throughout as the publisher sought to combat shrinking sales and remain current and relevant. Interesting small student list penned on front flyleaf shows the first seven pupils assigned this copy, from Sherri in 1965 to Jerry in 1966 and Carla in 1967. An exceptionally clean and sharp copy of a title often found in worn, well-loved condition. .
