1909rif. 157971909. One page on Kipling's "Bateman's Burwash Sussex" stationery. 14th Aug. 1909. This letter addressed to "Dear Sir" but with the recipient's name and address "9 King's Cross Road W.C." typed below reads: I have received your letter of the 12th together with the file of correspondence which I return herewith. I am only sorry that as I know nothing about the business side of inventions it is out of my power to assist you. Yours truly signed: Rudyard Kipling. We do not know who John Proctor was; nor did Kipling -- but Proctor had apparently sent a whole file regarding some invention he was working on. Perhaps he contacted Kipling because he knew the famous author had written an 1893 book titled MANY INVENTIONS The letter is in very good condition a couple of small holes and tape-marks not affecting print. Basic content but a fine example of Kipling's signature. unknown

They are far and away the best-known series of books for young people ever published. The subjects of Golden Books are chosen to entertain and delight children. Many of them are about the young child's own environment giving him a feeling of belonging. Others begin to acquaint the child with the lives of people around him and extend his awareness of the world. Although their gay and colorful appearance does not always immediately show it a number of Golden Books are packed with information. And behind the amusing stories in many of them is the serious purpose of helping the child prepare for difficult adjustments. The Golden Books include versions of modern children's classics told for young listeners and of course a good share of the beloved fairy and folk tales So look closely at the Golden Books you choose for they have many imitators. You will find a listing of some of the books in the Little Golden Library on the reverse of this cover. About the publishers: The Little Golden Books were printed in September 1942 and for sale in stores in October. One and a half million books were sold in just five months. With an initial series of twelve titles each having a print run of 50000 copies the first Little Golden Books were priced at a very affordable 25 cents each. Little Golden Books started with publishing firm Simon & Schuster; Western Printing and Lithographing Company in Racine Wisconsin was Simon & Schuster's partner in the Little Golden Books venture with Western handling print operations. Ownership and control of the series have changed several times since; today Penguin Random House is its current publisher. Wikipedia Golden Press hardcover
