    Description

    Original and vintage. Not a reproduction. According to a typewritten page in the envelope, this book is a reprint of Our WAAC Joan. The illustrator, Hilda Miloche, began illustrating children’s books for Whitman Publishing in the early 1940’s.  She continued into the 1960’s. Her art is a favorite among collectors. Wilma Kane was a good friend who helped with the artwork. There were five books in the original series Whitman #3980:  Our Nurse Nancy, Our Sailor Bob, Our Soldier Jim, Our WAAC Joan and Our Wave Patsy, all year 1943.
