Spelling games ;devices to be used in teaching spelling and a summary of procedure for teachers /
A 1927 American teacher's handbook of spelling games and classroom devices, written by Nell Katharine Thora Gleason and published in Chicago by Beckley-Cardy for elementary teachers. Its pictures are simple line drawings of children: a girl reading a book labelled with letters, a boy pointing at a box, five children holding letter cards that spell ROSES, and a black panel with word tiles above a house and a hospital. A designer could take the clean, flat, mid-century school-illustration style and its tidy boxed-panel layouts.
