About This Design

Vintage Children's Book Week Library Illustration

Vintage Children's Book Week Library Illustration

This iconic vintage poster, created by celebrated American illustrator Jessie Willcox Smith in 1920, was commissioned for the first official Children's Book Week. The artwork features a timeless, wholesome library scene: a boy is engrossed in a book on the floor while a girl selects a book from an overflowing shelf. The central message, "More Books in the Home!", promotes childhood literacy and the joy of reading. Rendered in Smith’s signature soft, warm style, the illustration exudes a nostalgic charm, making it a beloved piece of American graphic history.

So cute and so easy to assemble! My fiancé and I put the labels on in less than fifteen minutes. They shipped so quickly and are the perfect size to give as a little favor. I’ve shown a few of my friends pictures of them and have gotten so many compliments on how chic they are. I cannot recommend this shop enough! .
