Another thing I am always on the look out for are nice vintage Little Golden Books. I don't remember having them as a kid but but as an adult artist, I find great inspiration in them. Mary Blair, JP MIller, RIchard Scarry. Gustaf Tenggren, Alice & Martin Provensen are just a few of the many talented illustrators that Golden Books employed through the years.
who did that what if cover with the seal? it's BEAUTIFUL!

ReplyDeleteI loved Little Golden Books as a child! Funny story~I actually found an ERROR in one of them when I was only 2 or 3? My Mom sent them the book, and told them about the mistake ( they had written something about a bicycle, but the picture was of a tricycle...). Anyway, they answered the letter, and sent me a bunch of free books in return! How cool is that?
