by Guido Martina. Mentioned in Becattini's article about Martina in Le
grandi parodie book of Inferno di Topolino (pg 46).
It's an encyclopedia aimed at children, very popular in Italy at the time.
Each volume was dedicated to a particular knowledge area; Martina wrote
all the texts, which were illustrated by the great G.B. Carpi.
Coincidentally, there's a set currently for sale on eBay Italy, so you can
have a look at the cover of the volume dedicated to "Great myths and
legends":
