LOVED the Golden book… I memorized that thing and loved it beyond belief after getting it for my 6th birthday. What a treat to see it here… where is my copy????? Must find!

Mr Zallinger was one of my teachers at the Paier School of Art in the mid ’70’s. He was a generous and insightful instructor and visiting the Peabody Museum was always a thrill. It is located (or was) in New Haven, CT.

Hey! This image was a cenetrfold in my “Enciclopedia Estudiantil” here in Argentina in the sixties and made my imagination to fly.
Your information enriches my childhood. Thank you.

Wow, this stirs memories! I think I may have had a pull-out poster from a magazine of this image when I was a kid. Hmm.

Thank you for your blog! I am an English teacher who wanted to start an art club for my students, which resulted in my teaching art instead. It’s the first art class our school has ever had and I’m scrambling for information to enrich my students and help them. Your blog has been a big help and I enjoyed this post — Zallinger is amazing.
