Martin, John, editor. THE ROMANCE OF RUBBER. Edited by John Martin. Editor of John Martin's Book. The Child's Magazine.
New York: United States Rubber Company, (1924). (1924). Very good
- Quarto, 9-1/2 inches high by 7-1/4 inches wide.

The corners of the covers are creased and there is some minor rubbing at the spine. 24 pages, printed in red & black, with a frontispiece by George Carlson and several textual illustrations. Very good. A wonderful promotional book for the rubber industry. The book includes a list of companies which make various rubber products, including tires, clothing, shoes, household products, etc. A "Notice to Teachers" is printed at the rear: "These booklets are intended for presentation to your pupils. A full supply will be sent to you, free of charge, if you will indicate the number of students in your class". A wonderful early 20th Century example of corporations seeking to influence education. Especially relevant considering the debate over advertising material and video ads presented in the modern classroom & school.
