Encyclopedias were first marketed door-to-door to families that wished to provide their children with educational benefits as well as status symbols. Encyclopedias have also long been used to help immigrants studying American culture and history prepare for their citizenship exams. Encyclopedias are still a part of our homes, offices, libraries, and lives, from researchers and students to people who simply enjoy displaying these colourful encyclopaedias in prominent areas in their houses to prove their studious side. These vintage encyclopaedias are excellent creative gifts, especially for grads. Even more inventive are those who determine a person's exact year of birth and then present them with a collection of encyclopaedias published in that same year. Another advantage of encyclopaedias is that they come in a variety of styles. Choose a collection of encyclopaedias based on their condition, publisher, year, volume count, and cover colour. Farmhouse style homes, home offices, and traditional entryways are ideal places to display encyclopaedias. $250 - the whole Set or $10 per Book.
Dimensions: 190 x 255H mm
