Item Details & Condition:
Up for sale is an authentic, exceptionally rare vintage copy of "The Black and Gold" yearbook from the Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, located in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, dating back to 1922. This historic institution is famously known today as Lycoming College, making this centennial-era booklet a foundational piece of the school's early 20th-century history.
The softcover volume features a beautiful, arts-and-crafts style cover design illustrated with vibrant yellow black-eyed Susans, the school motto "FORWARD," and the initials "JET" in the corner. The binding features its original orange and black structural cord tied neatly along the spine.
* Historic Data: The title page proudly displays the Class of 1922 senior facts, listing their Class Flower (Brown Eyed Susan), Class Motto ("Forward"), and Class Colors (Black and Gold).
* Condition: Very good vintage condition for a delicate paper publication over 100 years old. The booklet is solid, tight, and entirely intact with no missing pages. The covers show very minimal edge wear, tiny chips along the far top right paper border, and gentle uniform age-toning. The reverse cover is blank, clean, and securely held by the original binding string.
An incredible historic asset for Scholastic collectors, Lycoming College alumni, Lycoming County genealogical researchers, or collectors of early 1920s Pennsylvania ephemera.
