Catalogue information
Savings gift, offered by the Rijkspostspaarbank to youth savers. Contains 16 small and 4 large pasted coloring pictures. For information on the savings campaign: see Figure 3 in the Foreword. Contains 1 page with foreword and 62 pages of story with stickers. The 2nd edition can be recognized by the back cover with the printing text of the printer: Jon. Enschedé and sons / Haarlem. The print is missing at the 1st edition! Because there was a shortage of books around November, it was reprinted. After World War II, a child at primary school could buy a ten cent stamp from the master every week and stick it on a card. If the card was full, the entire amount could be credited to a savings account at the post office. The Rijkspostspaarbank needed money and the parents were allowed to provide it through the children. To make it attractive, the children received a booklet where the pictures could be pasted. .
