Van Nuys, CA: The Scholastic Press, 1934. 6.5 x 4.5", beige cloth cover, green and red titling on cover and spine, 161 pp. 1930s edition of the Christmas Carol published at "The Scholastic Press" at Van Nuys High School in California. Illustrated with lithographs by Jack Heard. This is number 341 of a limited edition of 350 copies. The school printing teacher, Van C. Walton, notes at the end that "this book was undertaken as a class project because of the large enrollment in the spring semester, 1934, and because of the desire I have always had to have my students take part in making something worthwhile..." Hint of toning to pages, mild offsetting to endpapers, mild soiling and staining to covers, very good.
