1940s Textbook Collection

It's still winter.  The humans are up in VT (and finally found the burst pipes from the cold snap in late December...) and we're going through the massive stashes of vintage textbooks that we have somehow acquired.

This time it's an entire curriculum's worth of textbooks from the 1940s.  Also perfect for our eventual time-traveling classroom in the old schoolhouse, but that has to wait for the pipes to be fixed and the drywall and the dollhouse to be built.  So that might take a while.  But we hope to have the time-traveling classroom done by fall.

This set has english, science, social studies, health, and math books for grades 4-6.  The english books is the exact one found in the now-retired 'Molly's School Supplies' accessory set.  As always, the human complained about a lack of math and science books for dolls, and went about fixing it in her own way.

A 4th grade textbook collection

This set of 5 textbooks would probably be what Molly or Nanea would have used.  The english book was actually published in 1947, but since the Pleasant Company accessory set had it, the human decided to include it.  The rest of the books were published in the 1940-1943 timeframe, making them period appropriate for World War 2 era dolls in North America.  (Fun fact, these books were actually found on a Canadian site because they were used in the Alberta school system, despite all being published in the US.)

Interiors, in color

The insides are scans of the real textboooks, shrunk down to doll-size.  The human tried making them as readable as possible while still being actually doll-sized.
