Vintage 50s Good Manners Childrens Posters
"Watch No Trespassing Signs" and "Wipe Your Shoes Before You Enter".
Let's start 2013 off with a couple of mid century Good Manners reminders.
These vintage posters used to hang in primary school classrooms to teach young children about the etiquette of having good manners.
The posters are illustrated by Bertha Kerr and were published in 1957 by the Hayes School Publishing company.
I found a set like this for the shop before, and two shoppers quickly scooped up all the posters. Luck wanted it that i came across another set, so they are for sale in the shop again! Some of the posters have already sold again, but a few are still available.
"Don't Waste - Take Only What You Will Eat" and "Nobody Loves a Tattler".
"A Good Little Boy Never Talks Back" and "Don't be a Show Off".
"Be Prompt Always" and "Be Friendly Not Rude".
"Be Helpful to Others" and "Always Knock Before You Enter".
Wishing all a great and well mannered new year!
