I need a tribute to the North American Little Golden Book, the Mother Goose book that had Hey Diddle Diddle located on the front cover and the page that had Humpty Dumpty/Humpty Alexander Dumpty getting scared of falling off the wall by sitting on the wall in balances.
The "A" on the back page is for first printing, "B" is second printing, etc. You'll see sellers noting the "A" in their listing as several in your video did.
Katey this is a GREAT video and so helpful to me as I saved all my son's childhood books. I agree with you about preserving books -- my son feels the same. We are always picking up free books from the local library. I look forward to more of these type videos. I am interested in making journals out of books -- so cool. Hug that baby for me. Thanks.
Thanks for the deep dive Katey! I like the commentary and critiques a bunch. I never thought of selling Golden Books as a lot; have to look into that. Maybe I can score a quantity. I’m guessing “NR” means no reserve bidding.

Thanks for the info!
Until about 1971. The printing in letters is on the first pages. And many confuse copyright with printing.

Awesome I’m glad you found value! Will hug him for you!

You're so welcome! NR is new to me.
How do you add insurance if you send it through media mail?
Towards the bottom eBay offers you the option to purchase insurance. Very easy and can be estimated into your shipping charges or price.
@@KateyReads Thank You. 🙂
If they accept an offer it will show it was sold for the list price not the offer they accepted.
It will not. It will show list price with a line through it:
If an offer is taken you are able to go to Terapeak and see what was paid. The Little Man of Disneyland sold for $80.
Ahhh I always forget about terapeak!
Generally, if the Golden book is ripped or scribbled in, one will probably not get that much.
👍 yup
I have a small stack of them that I will sell as a lot today or trade off to some books I would be interested in
Best of luck!
