# ULTRA-RARE HISTORICAL CLASSROOM EPHEMERA LOT## 1937 Beckley-Cardy \"Dutch Picture Posters\" (Set 709) + 1947 \"After the Rain\" Lithograph Plates
Attention vintage paper collectors, history enthusiasts, and framing curators! This is an incredibly scarce, museum-quality collection of mid-century American educational art. Because these paper crafting kits were designed to be cut up, colored, and destroyed by schoolchildren in the 1930s and 40s, finding surviving, uncolored pieces like this is exceptionally rare.
### 📦 WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS LOT:1. **1937 Beckley-Cardy Co. \"Dutch Picture Posters in Panel Form to Build Up\" (Set No. 709)** * Includes the original large, heavy-stock tri-fold background panel illustrated by famed commercial artist Mildred Lyon Hetherington. * Includes multiple sheets of vibrant, completely uncut and unused colored paper construction pieces meant to be snipped out and pasted onto the panel. * Original illustrated storage portfolio folder envelope.
2. **1947 \"After the Rain\" International Children Lithograph Art Plates** * A bonus collection of 6 gorgeous, full-color vintage plates published by the Cleanliness Institute of New York. * Features incredibly vibrant artwork detailing the historical customs of children around the world: England, France, Italy, Holland, Poland, and a \"Helping at the Farm\" unit story page.
### 🔍 HONEST CONDITION REPORT & DEFECT DISCLOSURE:We believe in 100% transparency to protect our buyers. This lot is nearly 90 years old—please review the following flaws carefully:* **Storage Folder**: The outer paper envelope is heavily worn with split edges, corner tattering, and age-toning. It has done its job protecting the contents but is fragile.* **1937 Dutch Kit Content**: The large cardboard panel and color cutout sheets are in fantastic, crisp condition. They are completely uncolored, un-cut, and clean.* **1947 Lithograph Tears**: The central artwork colors are stunning and bright. However, two plates have edge defects. The \"Poland\" print has a noticeable ~2-inch tear extending into the upper border. The \"Farm\" print has a small tear and localized creasing along the right-hand paper edge. These flaws are restricted to the margins and would be easily hidden if framed under matting.
### 🚚 SHIPPING & HANDLING:* **Ships fast from Columbus, Ohio.*** Packed flat with heavy-duty cardboard reinforcing to guarantee it arrives without any bending or further creasing.* Shipped via trackable service within 1 business day of Beckley-Cardy Company Chicago[ARTIST]: Mildred Lyon Hetherington[AUTHOR]: Grace T.
