The Golden Year Annual- 1929
This oversized (11 x 8.75) more than 100 page book is comprised of
numerous stories and poems for youngsters. It has illustrated
endpapers. It cost $2.00.
A number of different authors and illustrators contributed.
The list includes Fred Spurgin, Winifred Barham, N. E. Tuckett, Freda
Isabel Noble, B. Gower, Hyman W. Perlzweig, M. M. Gell, T. Parlett, May
Gladwin and others. There are line drawn illustrations as well as full
page color pictorial pictures. The stories and poems have no author
attribution. Some of the illustrations are signed whereas others are
not.
This is one of the rarest of Altemus books. It undoubtedly came with a
dust jacket but as of yet I have not seen it.
