Re - Scott Orr posters listed as 1925 and 1930
Hello,
Thank you for having such an interesting and educational site.
I have some information which more accurately dates the Scott Orr posters
featured in your listings.
I have been collecting these posters, and many others of the 1920/30/40's for
the past twelve years. The posters you feature belong to a set brought
together by E. Lane at Macmillan's. First published in 1934 under the title
Macmillan's Teaching in Practice for Infants - The set comprised of a four
volumes of books and a black portfolio containing sixty coloured class
pictures/posters. This first edition was printed by Purnell and Sons,
Paulton, Somerset, Great Britain.
A second edition followed in 1936 with an additional fifteen (numbers 61-75)
posters added to the portfolio. There were then re-printed editions with some
fashion modifications in the early 1940's (updated cars, planes, uniforms and
hats) right up until the final reprint in 1946, after this date a new set
were commissioned to keep in touch with new teaching practices.
I hope this information will prove valuable to you. If you require
photographs of the books, portfolio etc, I would be very happy to send you
some.
With best wishes and kind regards,
Emma van Woerkom
