EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print from 1886 showcases a collection of advertisements for illustrated books aimed at children. These books were not just meant for entertainment, but also served as tools for indoctrination and education in Victorian society. Some of the books were designed to be colored in by the children themselves, while others were specifically created to instill Christian values and principles in young minds.
In this snapshot of the past, we see how advertising was used as a means of shaping behavior and upbringing in children. The emphasis on good behavior and religious teachings is evident in the messaging of these ads, reflecting the societal norms and values of the time.
The image provides a window into a bygone era when literature played a crucial role in molding young individuals into "good little Christians." It serves as a reminder of how different educational approaches were back then compared to modern times.
Overall, this print is not just a glimpse into the world of advertising history, but also an insight into how childhood education and religion intersected during the late 19th century. It prompts us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of child-rearing practices and educational materials since that time.
