I've got a book that I can't identify. It looks like it's from the 50s or 60s. It's designed for young readers. I don't know the title of it, author, or ISBN because those pages have been torn off.
On page 4, it reads:
"This is a guide to aid you in identifying rocks and minerals. But it is more than that. This book will also help you understand the importance of rocks and minerals in our daily lives."
On page 5, there is an artist's depiction of a car that I think must be from the 50s or 60s.
I think this book might be the same one that you own entitled, "Rocks and Minerals" by Herbert Spencer Zim.
Could you please check page 4 to see if those are the first words?
Oh, another thing, this book is small (pocket sized) - as a field guide should be.
Thanks very much!
