Someone posted this image to Reddit/Imgur, noting the appearance of an egg and sperm on the cover of the primary school religion book:

If you have examples of the original covers of Texts and Tests, Footprints, Come and See, Figure it Out, Discovery, vintage covers of Siamsa, Sonas, Spraoi and Súgradh, Maths Mastery, any secondary school history, geography, science, home economics or business books… or anything at all really, email us tips@dailyedge.ie
