What is an interesting distinction of the 1958 Arsenal Cannon Yearbook? Think "outside" the book.

Nope, the first hardbound yearbook was for the CLASS OF 1953.

Hi all,

The first thing I though of is that the outside hardcover is in two colors.

The distinction about the 1958 Arsenal Cannon yearbook is that it came in to different covers. Both are traditional cloth hardback covers: one version is two-tone about 1/3rd Green and 2/3rds White. On the center front toward the bottom are 1 1/4th tall script letters: THE ARSENAL CANNON. In the lower left hand corner is printed 1958. Also vertically, much smaller letters lying sideways are printed on the cover: ARSENAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL. The other version of a 1958 year book is just PLAIN dark green cover. The pages inside are all the same for both versions. I have a large collection of many years and this is the only year such a situation exist. Why? I'll always wonder?
