MONEY ROUND THE WORLD

by ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 27, 1963

Opening and closing with a cash register, this is an attempt to introduce the new spender to the concept of currency for barter, but it doesn't quite come off. the illustrations are jarringly bold and dominate (sometimes without illuminating) the text. The believe -- it -- or -- not items about stone money, human skulls and elephant tail bristles are here without any attempt to explain the how or why of them. Purchase only if free samples of the subject are offered.
