NB. Among the books from the Wereldbibliotheek publisher are also Sirene pockets ( #5443057 ) and Rainbow pockets ( #3475227 ). Published by Maarten Muntinga and Wereldbibliotheek. They don't seem right there to me. I can't check it myself.

What it actually comes down to is that the importers of the WBs and Salamanders and/or some administrators had access to the numbering of the various publications? A nice description in the link that Jopo pasted in indicates that there used to be an initiative to bring reading to men/women at home for a reasonable price. A nice history.

The numbering of the Salamander series can be found in this booklet . According to this booklet, 'In the blazing spring' (3rd edition, 1950) does indeed have number 71, but that is stated between brackets. So it won't be in the book itself.

Harry56 thanks for the tip. I'm just as handy as you are. Learn something new almost every day. I don't have Salamanders (anymore). But the fact that they all have a number... it's got to be in the books somewhere. Checked all third photos/scans, but couldn't find a number anywhere.

Thanks, I'll take a look at the link tonight. You can paste such a link with the paper clip, so that everyone can click on it immediately. (I also learned this because I'm not very good with digital skills)

I also made some changes today in the catalogue, Salamander series, so there is also a number (71 in the series), so it is not in my copy, not in the book and not in the dust jacket. Possibly also the same as the WB's ??

Hi Harry, I've been doing some digging. The link below contains the answer to your question.

entered #10172607 yesterday

https://www.lastdodo.nl/nl/areas/40081-wereldbibliotheek

I have only owned a handful of the WB issues and therefore know little about them. 1769 of them have already been imported into LD. Enigma, unfortunately no longer with us, has written a clear brief explanation about its origins and purpose.

What I was wondering:

a) Many of the titles entered have a number, but my entered copy does not. Were those numbers in the books or is there some sort of overview of them?
b) the band drawing is more common on other WB editions, does anyone know the name of the "designer" KB does not have that information.

Quite strange, the advertisement shows the book binding without the dust jacket, but it is good that you specifically cut out the text with "Hans Kresse also provided a colorful dust jacket this time ".
So confirms that this was not the case with previous parts.

Margriet 41 of October 10, 1959 (via Delpher):



"Hans Kresse again provided the beautiful prints and this time also a colorful dust jacket."

Thank you! That was indeed it, Jilles had told me some time ago with a picture of such an advertisement. There is no better proof. I was lost for a moment. However, some have also appeared with SO.

I actually only know Reinaert's dust jacket.

I don't think these books needed a fancy binding. They were promoted through the weekly magazine Margriet (and related magazines) and probably ordered as "recommended reading" by the parents, rather than because the children asked for them.

See https://www.lastdodo.nl/nl/areas/190067-margriet-jeugdbibliotheek

I have added some (humorous) Hans G Kresse illustrations to #16874 .
Still finds it strange that only a few titles in the series were released with dust jackets. After all, the bindings themselves are boring for children's books.
I think Jilles said something about it at some point, but I can't find it anymore.
I assume Jilles will take a look, perhaps other experts also know something about it

It may be worth a little more to a specialist looking for cool specimens.

An enthusiast will also prefer to cut open a copy themselves. You often see specimens that look less beautiful because they have not been cut open carefully enough.

WJ Thieme's edition, I suspect?
It may be of slightly more value to a specialist who is looking for cool specimens.
But don't count on it being rich, it won't be more than a few euros difference.
Your edition is about two centuries too young to be really interesting.
It would of course be appreciated if you entered it in the catalogue.

I have an antique booklet from 1909: Hekeldichten van Vondel which is still COMPLETELY uncut! I hope this has added value? I have no idea where I can offer it for sale, but I would like to know whether being uncut (from the 1st flyleaf to the last) justifies a higher price?

After consultation with Tom Poes and Mr Bommel - Toonder connoisseur and enthusiast waldo1961
I have added all plates in color to 2 catalog numbers, see #4426841, among others
and links added to the 4 well-known old large puzzles (and 1 later small size)

Worth it for the beauty of the illustrations.
If all goes well, all published editions/variants are in the LD catalogue.

It may be that I have forgotten something somewhere or that it is incorrect, but everyone is of course free to adjust that.

This is due to the transfer from one category to another category. The wrong type of book was probably incorrectly indicated at the time.

Was alerted today by a collector to a possible incorrect change.
In my opinion, this is a laminated/plasticized edition, but this has been changed via autoreview. I don't know how that system works, is that a system error or a change by an administrator?
