    My mom bought a set of the World Book Encyclopedia when my siblings and I were kids. I used to read the articles for fun.

    I think this is a rerun. The hiatus may still be on.

    My parents got us a set of Encyclopedia Americana in 1965. It came with an extra set of books called “The New Book of Knowledge” which was written for children. And then we got an annual update each year for a decade. I know that they cost several hundred dollars, paid over time.

    I don’t know why I remember this, but the Colliers Encyclopedia set my parents bought us cost $780, and the annual updates were $22 or $23. It was a major investment back then … The salesman came to the house with graphs and charts and a whole spiel.

    The books had a place of honor in the living room bookcase. I also remember that decades later, I couldn’t get rid of them at a tag sale, not even for $10. They were still in perfect condition and I thought someone would’ve wanted them just for the great pictures and the stories. Even the used bookstore didn’t want them.

    My father bought us a set of encyclopedias from the 1940s (this was in the mid 60’s for $20. Said we had to use them. When we finished the research with them, we went to the library to use the new ones, and just added the current information that was missing. Think my brudders threw them out in 2009 when dad died.

    During the 60s, my mother purchased Funk and Wagnalls encyclopedias from the local A&P one book a month.

    Hi Huda, welcome back, you can see we missed you.

    On to the actual comic.

    Your mom too? Mine didn’t do that with encyclopedias though, just some other reference books. I think she thought we (her kids) should learn to spell the word before we were allowed to look it up in the dictionary.

    It was customary in the times before The Prophet to bury people who could read and write with their writing tools as a way to honour the deceased.
