Vintage 1959 Educational Book, Spelling, Speech and Composition by Walter Reynolds

A charming slice of mid-century British school life, this 1959 introductory textbook by Walter Reynolds was once used in Demesne County J.M. School in Middleton, Lancashire. Filled with early learning exercises, rhymes, and whimsical illustrations, it’s a nostalgic piece of classroom history.

The vibrant patterned cover adds a graphic, almost folk-art appeal, while the interior pages offer a time capsule of vintage educational values and language instruction, alongside beautiful illustrations. A beautiful piece for collectors of vintage books, teachers, or those drawn to retro typography and ephemera. Would also be lovely displayed on a child’s desk or framed in a nursery.

Stamped with its original school markings and dated 27 May 1959.
