About Golden Book Guy

My name is Dick Schultz and I call myself the Golden Book Guy. I’ve been distributing Golden Books since 1991 when Golden asked me to take over their mail order, school, and library business. Even through their bankruptcy in the late 90’s I’ve specialized in the Golden Book line. I was thrilled when Random House bought the company and they now have propelled the Golden Book line to the head of the children’s book category.

I feature every new Little Golden Book and thousands of out of print titles. Each out of print title tells you the physical condition of the book and what printing it is, such as a 1st Edition, etc. Also the page count. I also put in the child’s name and info if there is any, usually on the inside cover where it says “This book belongs to”. I have been very pleasantly surprised to have matched some books up to their original owners, even after several decades! It brings a smile to my face every time that happens. I’ve also had several customers send me pictures of them as children holding their Golden Books, or being read to by their parents with the book in the picture. It makes this website even more special when that happens. These books are a big part of millions of kids formative years.

This website will never be complete because I’m always adding and selling books. If you don’t see a book you want please send me a note and I will see if I have it, and, if not, I’ll put it on my wish list for you. All my out of print books are one each, unless noted, so please don’t order multiples of a title- they are all unique. If you are shipping out side the US let me know what you would like and I’ll get you the best rate. Let me know if you have any questions and Happy Hunting!
