I noticed sometimes he used the initials CH. I am a homeschool mom and I love his work, it is beautiful, engaging yet not over stimulating for young minds. I just purchased 3 of his out of print books for our "school" library. Yeah I tell my husband the kids "need" all these books for school.<br /><br />I also found another thread where someone is trying to find who owns your grandfathers estate http://www.drawger.com/roberthunt/?article_id=6312 (last comment on page)so out of print books could be brought back. I read that some of his projects were cut short because of the detailed printing processes of the time. That would no longer be an issue.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-68224276971491337692016-09-24T23:11:38.686-07:002016-09-24T23:11:38.686-07:00Cornelius was my grandfather.

Cause I'm going with you!<BR/><BR/>I found my Golden History of the World in the most trashed out Goodwill here in Bakersfield CA and I am thrilled to own it. I thought I would be able to just jump online and find another (this one's binding is pretty beat up)but that didn't happen. So- there you go!<BR/><BR/>Are you a cartoonist? I have been myself for many years but gave up the addiction when the rates fell!I am now a relic - ex-illustrator - ex-brushline inker - but happy to be now creating my own work.

When I was a kid I had one of those human body models with the plastic skeleton and the human organs that fit over it held together in a plastic case. I loved it because I was able to paint all of the parts. This reminds me of that gift so many years ago.laundrygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10414456180378176592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-70843977947724096122007-11-24T18:42:00.000-08:002007-11-24T18:42:00.000-08:00Hi Ward: I too grew up with this book, and now it'...Hi Ward:<BR/><BR/> I too grew up with this book, and now it's doing time educating my anatomically curious daughter. I especially liked the cell dividing sequence, the vitamin deficiency pictures and the fold-out. <BR/><BR/>So, if LAIKA/House ever gets into educational videos, you know what to base it on!Jhhlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377172034467799710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984824.post-27027539132842397032007-11-22T05:57:00.000-08:002007-11-22T05:57:00.000-08:00Brilliant find...

(Actually, I'm pretty sure it originally belonged to my mom, since she was a teacher. My grandfather was also a surgeon, so maybe it belonged to him originally.) This book taught me everything I wanted to know about the human body as a child, along with those "Visible Man" (or Woman or Head) model kits. I always had a keen interest in science & nature. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting this...it's really great to look back on.Ken A.
