Monday's Muster #17

Old books today for Monday's Muster. Vintage Whitman movie star stories. I stumbled onto these several years ago on Ebay. From the 40s, these books feature popular stars of the time and were geared at younger readers. I don't have the complete series. Some titles seem rather scarce, and it is hard to find these in good condition-- cheap paper, I think, but aren't the covers fun?







Maybe one day I'll have the entire set!  That would be something.

Enjoy!

  2. I have never seen that series (and I've seen a lot of series!) Hope you can collect them all. That would be wonderful!

  3. These are AWESOME! I wonder if I have any of them...I'll have to look. Some of my Westerns look similar to these. I love the bright colors. I found some neat books this week at a book sale. I need to take some photos and do a post soon. Enjoy your day my friend. Hugs, Diane
