Another book about publishing books here, as Miss Ella Mentry (yes!), school teacher visits the John C. Winston publishing group to see how books are made! after a bit of bad acting by the girl playing Mentry, we're on our way as we go through step by step, and it's not bad, minus the unsafe machines. Soon said book is made, and miss horrible actress is back in her classroom, looking like this whole thing is ridiculous. Oh well. Bonus star for the inexpicable "The End" card featuring a man on the gallows. Made me howl!
