1922 Webster's Home School & Office Dictionary Illust. Self-Pronouncing Radio Ed

Description: This is an old and interesting dictionary that was edited and published by Consolidated Book Publishers. The copyright is listed as 1922, but the publishing date is listed as 1924. Please see the pictures and read the description above for details about condition! I'm not even a history buff and find this book fascinating! The full title is Webster's Home School and Office Dictionary Illustrated Self-Pronouncing Radio Edition. There are a few pictures/illustrations that are interesting because of that date of publication - one of battleships and another of war tanks. The 1920 U.S. census is listed in the back of the book. Also included are the following sections Principles of English GrammarRadio TermsA List of the Latest Words (this section is particularly interesting since nearly all are connected with World War I)Synonyms/AntonymsForeign Words/Phrases/ProverbsCommercial/Legal TermsGlossary of Aviation TermsAutomobile TermsPresidents of the United StatesFamous Characters in Poetry and ProseFamiliar AllusionsMost Common AbbreviationsA Manner of Forecasting the WeatherDeclaration of IndependenceThe Constitution of the United States of AmericaNames of the States and Their MeaningsNicknames of the States and the ReasonChristian Names of MenChristian Names of WomenNicknames of Famous PersonagesDecisive Battles of the World and Their ResultsValue of Foreign Coins in U.S. MoneyAnd a few more!You even get the lucky four leaf clover (which unfortunately discolored the pages where it was saved) and a couple ribbons that were used as bookmarks! Please see the description and check the pictures for details and contact me if you have questions.Please feel free to ask questions! Note: All of my items come from a smoke-free home. We have one cat, but I do my best to keep her away from areas where I prepare items for selling. Nearly all items have been stored in closets in rooms she does not go into. I do my best to describe items clearly and only sell in a condition I would use myself. If I miss something, please contact me to let me know!Shipping: I try my best to provide a reasonable shipping price and do not include packaging and handling in the cost. If you end up paying more than a few cents beyond my cost for shipping, I will refund the difference. If it costs me more to ship it's on me! About me: I am a retired teacher cleaning out my closets and working towards getting rid of anything I don't use or no longer need. Everything I'm selling belonged to me or one of my family members - I am not a thrifter-reseller! My goal for retirement is to downsize as much as possible so my relatives aren't left with a mess when I die!
