Three ring internal binder (as issued) with each large folio of four pictures bound together with reinforced (again, as issued) leatherette spines. Contains all 6 "stories" (a total of 24 large pictures) from the We Look and See, the beginning pre-Primer.

Clean, bright and fresh, each page has no marks whatsoever - perhaps a touch of age toning and faint signs of handling along outer page edges, otherwise truly fine.

Original blue cloth with printed paper label and metal rivets along top edge. Leaves removable from interior binder as issued. Illustrated throughout in color. [3]-30 pages (no "first" leaf as issued). Some marginal toning and light signs of use, shadows from removed tape on one page, moderate wear to binding. Lacking front easel; rear easel intact.
