Reproduction Vintage Book Week Posters

This poster is a mashup of three of my favorite things: reading, vintage posters and foxes! When I saw it on Steph's blog I had to know where it was from. I found it and three others like it for sale and I'm happy to tell you where:

You can find them for sale (no need to go through an auction) at eBay store Cervi-Roche Auctions for about ten dollars. They're pretty big - you can see how one looks all nice and framed at Steph's house on her blog Simply Radiant.

I always thougt read week was february. As a kid, we would get local celbrities in everyday to read the class a book that week.
We even had a super catchy song!
"I like to read
yeah, yeah yeah
I like to read
books n' poetry and magazines!"

LOVE these!!! I got a ton of reproductions of old WPA posters & one of my favs is the "Be Kind to Books Club! Are you a member?"

If you scroll down, you can see a close up of it in my old library -since been redone- but that poster is still there! :D

@CozyLittleCave-- I love your blog! This library/reading room is going in my "inspiration file". (I have the same mirror- now I'm considering painting it, too-- yours looks great!)

I just bought the fox and the owl posters for our children's reading nook-- If you haven't, look at Tess's AMAZING reading room-- follow her link!

wow--- i love the book week posters....!!!

I have the first poster with the fox that I purchased on clearance from PB Kids six-ish years ago. It hangs at the top of our stairs and always makes me smile.

Thanks for tracking these down Carrie! Larry surprised me with this poster when I graduated with my masters degree in children's literature. Since then a few people have asked me where I bought it, and I had no idea what to tell them. I even looked and couldn't find anything!

My copy is even bigger than it looks in the photo because we have 10" ceilings and an abnormally large mantel.
