EDITORS COMMENTS
A glimpse into the past: Obtaining Your Very Own Encyclopaedia Britannica in the 1920s In the age before Google and Wikipedia, obtaining a comprehensive and reliable source of general knowledge was a cherished achievement. This photograph from the 1920s showcases the excitement and anticipation of acquiring the prestigious Encyclopaedia Britannica, a symbol of knowledge and learning. The Encyclopaedia Britannica, in this instance, consists of sixteen larger double volumes instead of the traditional thirty-two single volumes. The pages are filled with black-and-white text and some vibrant colour illustrations, making each entry an engaging exploration of various subjects. The acquisition process was made more accessible through small monthly payments, allowing individuals to gradually build their personal library. This affordable approach made the Encyclopaedia Britannica an attainable goal for many households during this era. The coupon in hand is a testament to the meticulous ordering process. Once filled out and sent, the eager learner would eagerly await the arrival of their new acquisitions. The Encyclopaedia Britannica was not just a book, but a source of pride, a beacon of knowledge, and a gateway to the world beyond. This photograph transports us back to a time when the acquisition of knowledge was a tangible and cherished experience. The Encyclopaedia Britannica represented a connection to a broader world, a source of historical and general knowledge, and a testament to the enduring human desire to learn and expand our understanding of the world around us.
